A Trail Near Wonder Lake, Denali National Park And Preserve

A dirt and gravel trail that parallels Wonder Lake on a sunny day in Denali National Park and Preserve

"Wonder Lake is an iconic part of Denali. Views of the Alaska Range, and Denali in particular, are fantastic when skies are clear. The area can be cloudy, and mosquitoes can be a major nuisance most of the summer, but the beautiful landscape still drawns many visitors each year. This region is much wetter than other parts of the park through which the road passes, providing opportunities for seeing waterfowl."
