Traverse Alaska specializes in private, custom human-powered adventures based in Denali. We provide single-day and multi-day hiking, rafting, backpacking, packrafting and custom trips that focus on deep exploration and education across Alaska. Partnering with the highest quality local lodges and restaurants enables us to create seamless itineraries that inspire connections to our natural world and ignite the soul. Our custom-designed trips challenge guests while creating the opportunity to experience true, wild freedom at their own unique pace.
Our Private and Custom experiences mean it’s just you and your group, with our team of local, professional guides. We can guide your group on a single day adventure, multiple days in the Denali area, or build your entire Alaska itinerary. Our home is Denali, however we offer trips and provide services across Alaska by working with knowledgeable local experts, and the highest quality businesses in areas across the state.
Our services include:
- Private and Custom adventures We have incredible access to hiking, rafting, backpacking, and packrafting right in our “Denali backyard,” but we can help you with any kind of adventure you’re looking for.
- Private and Custom transportation From black car service, chartered flights, and domed rail cars to dog sleds and snowmachines (or “snowmobiles” as they’re called in the Lower 48).
- Lodging services From the luxury of private cabins (Tonglen Lake Lodge), hotels, and lodges to the rustic charm and unforgettable experience of private yurts and tents on a backpacking adventure.
- Private and Custom itinerary planning We can build a custom itinerary from start to finish, or just fill in the gaps where you need some help. Fully guided, or partially guided options available.
- Wilderness preparedness courses including an introduction to backcountry travel in Alaska and introduction to packrafting.
