Hear the guide
This is the real narration from Parkwolf’s Denali tour. It starts on its own as you approach each stop, so you never tap or read while driving.
“The road is now taking you through Sable Pass, a high, open tundra landscape that is famous for its wildlife. This is probably the best area in the park to look for grizzly bears.”
Real stops, real narration
Three real lines from the narration, each with the app’s tip for that stop, at three of the most-loved stops in Denali.
“You’re nearing the historic Park Headquarters area, which has a classic Denali experience: the Sled Dog Kennels. This isn't just for show; it's the only working sled dog kennel in the entire National Park System.”
App tip If you walk, it’s roughly two miles from the visitor center via the Roadside Trail.
“The Husky Homestead is located around here; please know it's the private, working kennel of Iditarod champion Jeff King. This tour is completely separate from the National Park’s sled dog program.”
App tip Dress in layers; portions of the tour are outside and run rain or shine.
“The pullout you're seeing is the Teklanika River Rest Area, a classic bus stop with a big view over the river. The viewing platform is a great place to use binoculars.”
App tip Binoculars dramatically improve your chances of spotting wildlife from the platform.

“We just used the app this morning on our drive around Cades Cove and it provided a lot of info along the way and greatly enhanced our experience! And to top it off, we saw a female black bear and her two cubs just before the halfway point!”

“Loved it after I figured out how to use the app, the information was very interesting and the automatic play as you drive was very convenient. The map came in handy too when we lost connection on our GPS. Thank you!”
