Denali National Park Information

 Denali National Park - Climate

Denali National Park is a big park. The good news is that you'll get a lot of daylight in which to explore it.

Denali's average temperatures reach into the 60s in the summer, but visitors should expect much warmer and much cooler afternoons as well.

In the upper elevations, such as at Eielson Visitor Center, be prepared for cool rain or even snow by mid-August.

The weather in Denali National Park can be highly unpredictable. Having adequate outdoor clothing is essential.

Summers in Denali are typically cool and damp with temperatures in the 50’s and 60’s. Temperatures in the 70’s and higher, are not uncommon in the warmer months. The first few weeks of June, the last two weeks of August, and the entire month of September can be even more unpredictable with possible chances of snow and some freezing temperatures.

To stay comfortable no matter what the weather is in Alaska, the layering technique works best. As the weather changes - and it will - you can remove or add more clothing for your comfort.
