Rules of Driving the Denali Park Road

Before driving on the Denali Park Road beyond Savage River (mile 15), employees of the National Park Service and holders of Denali Park Road permits (e.g., contractors, private property owners, etc.) must watch a video explaining the procedures and rules required for safely driving the road. This video is currently being updated and is not available online; please contact your road permit liasion for more information.

Please note that private vehicle traffic is generally restricted at Mile 15; most park visitors will not drive beyond this point, and do not need to watch this video. Visitors are encouraged to sight-see along the park road via one of the many bus services offered.

Authorized Areas for Temporary Stops Along the Denali Park Road

During the summer season, there are certain areas approved by the Denali National Park and Preserve superintendent for temporary stops by buses or single vehicles along the road.

This information is generally only needed for companies and organizations operating buses on the park road, or the rare individual who has a permit to drive the road. The general public won't need to know this information in detail.

Download a zip folder of map data. The folder contains:

• Multi-page maps (one with a topographic background, one with a satellite image background). These are probably the best option for users who want to print the entire sequence and refer to it while on the road.
• Single-page maps (again, one with a topo background and one with a satellite image background). These are geo-referenced, meaning they can be used in third-party products, like Avenza Maps, to refer to your actual location within the PDF while on the road.
• Data files that can be used in a GPS device or a third-party application, like Google Earth, to visualize the locations.
