Rangers and dogs work together to demonstrate a traditional Alaskan mode of travel. These unique 30-minute programs include an opportunity to tour the park kennels and visit Denali's Alaskan Huskies.

Free buses leave the Denali Visitor Center for the kennels approximately forty (40) minutes before each demonstration. No parking is available near the kennels, so please plan on using the buses or walking the 1.5 miles from the Denali Visitor Center to the sled dog kennels. No fees or reservations, for the buses or demonstration, are required.

Programs have concluded for 2009. The park kennels are open year-round, however, from 8 am - 5 pm daily. Please check this space in spring, 2010, to learn when we will begin offering demonstrations next summer.

Demonstrations are given three times daily in peak season.

10 a.m.

2 p.m.
