Denali Park dog mushing tour. Denali Husky Homestead Dog Mushing Tour a personal tour of Iditarod champion Jeff King's dog sled kennel. Get a behind-the-scenes look at what goes into creating a championship dog sled team and hear stories from the trail and see actual dog racing sleds, arctic survival gear and equipment.

This 4 hour excursion combines the mild scenic wilderness stretch and the rapids of the Canyon Run. Enjoy Alaska's scenic beauty and hit over 10 major rapids for a complete morning or afternoon of river running. Oar Raft or Paddle Raft available.

The adventure starts out with the scenic mile-water section beginning at McKinley Village. Your river raft will drift slowly away and leave only a quiet encounter with Denali’s wilderness. Enjoy the Alaskan splendor as we view the Yanert Fork River merging with the waters of the Nenana River below the Musher's Monument, a natural rock formation distinctly resembling a musher driving a sled and team of dogs. While passing by Mount Fellows and Pyramid Mountain, watch for a variety of wildlife and enjoy class II and mild class III whitewater rapids.

Entering the canyon adventure we'll encounter over 10 major Class III to IV rapids. Exciting wave-trains and powerful hydraulics create rapids like "Razorback," "Iceworm," "Cable Car," "Royal Flush," and "Coffee Grinder". No experience is required; ages 10 and up are welcome. Choose an Oar Raft and hold on or a Paddle Raft (minimum age is 14) for extra hands-on excitement.
