Numerous hotels cluster just outside of the park entrance, and a handful of wilderness lodges can be found at the end of the park road in Kantishna or scattered in remote areas just outside of the park's borders.

Inside the Park
 • Kantishna Roadhouse, Tel: (800) 942-7240 - Located at the end of the park road, deep within Denali National Park. Log cabin lodging with private bath, meals, guided hiking, and other activities. $360 per person per night, based on double occupancy. Extremely expensive, but one of the only options other than camping that allows visitors to spend time in the interior of the park.
 • Denali Backcountry Lodge, Tel: (800) 841-0692 - Located ninety-five miles into the park at the end of the park road. $560 for a single traveler, $375 per person for double occupancy. Costs include all meals, activities, and travel by bus from the park entrance.
 • Camp Denali and North Face Lodge, Tel: (907) 683-2290 - Sister camps located in the middle of the park, in the Wonder Lake area. The two lodges accommodate 35-40 guests each and provide an excellent way to see the interior of the park for multiple days without multiple days of bus travel. The minimum stay at either location is three or four days, but there are naturalists on the staff, and their guided tours and knowledge of the park usually make this time too short. Regular nightly programs provide detailed information about the park, and its flora and fauna. $500 for a single traveler, $400 per person based upon double occupancy includes meals, activities and travel by bus from the park entrance.
 • Hawks Nest Cabin, Tel: (907) 683-2290 - Associated with Camp Denali and the North Face Lodge, this cabin is set aside for those who want to go it alone within the park. This cabin accommodates a maximum of four people, and goes for approximately $425 per night for the 2006 season. The price includes paperwork for approval of private automobile travel into the park, housekeeping and lodging.

Backcountry
For those planning on backcountry camping in Denali a permit is required as well as some experience in backcountry camping. Camping in the park's wilderness is not for first-time campers - if you get into trouble there will not be anyone within miles to go to for help, and rangers will not come looking for you unless you are more than a day late in returning. You will encounter large animals and vicious swarms of bugs, you will probably have to deal with weather that can change from sun to freezing rain in short periods, and you will most likely have to ford freezing streams and navigate dense willow thickets. With that warning, Denali is a magnificent place for experienced campers to go backpacking, and the nature experience is truly awe-inspiring.
