Traffic Jams in Denali National Park

For the past quarter-century, millions of visitors have experienced Denali National Park and Preserve largely through the window of a 48-passenger bus.

Under Denali National Park’s current vehicle management plan, the maximum number of vehicles allowed on the park’s 92-mile road during the tourist season is 10,512. Visitors tend to be more diverse today, including families looking for an educational experience and adventurers who want to take hikes or go on birding expeditions. “They don’t want to sit on the bus, and we’ve started making accommodations for that.”
