Denali Star Train

Navigating a state that’s almost two and half times the size of Texas can be a daunting task: That’s why we recommend uncovering Alaska’s stark beauty and vast terrain – think snow-capped mountains, verdant forests, and sprawling tundra – via the Alaska Railroad’s Denali Star Train. Passengers can chug along on a memorable 365-mile route of scenic unspoiled backcountry between Anchorage and Fairbanks, catching glimpses of towering Mt. McKinley (weather permitting) and wildlife, from eagles soaring overhead to moose grazing in the distance, all the while traversing breathtaking river gorges via single-span bridges, making old-fashioned whistle stops, and stopping over at the legendary Denali National Park – to which the train pioneered tourism. Definitely consider upgrading to the first-class, double-decker “GoldStar” cars, with their open-air observation decks, upscale dining cars, and priority seating under panoramic glass domes.
