Denali Mountain Morning Hostel

Denali National Park & Preserve


Perched beside the gurgling Carlo Creek, this is the area’s only true hostel. That's cool – it makes up in quality for a lack of hostel quantity. The setting is a dream – mountains to one side, a stream running through it all. The hostel features a hotchpotch of tent-cabins, log cabins and platform tents. Only open during summer.

There’s a fire pit, and visitors can cook meals and swap tales in the ‘octagon’ – the hostel’s common area. Laundry facilities are available and the hostel offers free shuttle services to/from the park's Wilderness Access Center throughout the day.
