Denali National Park is an enormous 6 million-acres of rugged mountains, lush valleys, crystal clear rivers, dense forests, and barren tundra. Year-round camping is only available at the park’s largest, most-developed campground, Riley Creek. The other five campgrounds are open from mid-May to mid-September depending on the weather and road conditions. Most campsites are spacious and spread out for added privacy and each campground varies in size and amenities. Tent-only camping is available at three of the park’s campgrounds, Sanctuary River, Igloo, and Wonderlake. Except for Riley Creek, each of the campgrounds offer spectacular views of Denali (formerly Mount McKinley).
