Backpacking in Alaska's Wrangell-St. Elias National Park

Highlights

Test your off-trail backpacking skills in America's largest national park.

This rarely seen area of Wrangell-St. Elias National Park is arguably Alaska's most dramatic wilderness and offers one of the few places on earth where you can hike on dry tundra directly beneath a vertical and heavily glaciated north face over 7000' tall.

Shaped by volcanoes and scoured by ice ages, the north Wrangells give experienced backpackers the rare opportunity to feel like a mountaineer and travel like an explorer. Our 50-mile route will take you across glaciers, swift creeks, high mountain passes, and wide-open tundra. Combine all of this with some of the most reliable weather in Alaska, and you have the makings of a true backpacking adventure of a lifetime.
