This is one of the only fully off-trail activities in Denali, and it's the ONLY survival focused activity offered in the Denali area. It is lead by an expert survivalist guide who has survived off the land for weeks on end. If "Into the Wild" is part of what brought you to Alaska, this is the best way to get an idea of what Chris McCandless's life was really like in the Denali backcountry. Eat the edible plants that he ate and learn the not-so-edible ones he ate that resulted in his demise.

OH! And we donate 5% of our net profits to conservation in the areas we guide. That means you're helping Denali by taking this tour!

Cần Quan Tâm

Get ready for a one-of-a-kind experience. Ours is the first and only survival tour in Alaska. Your expert survivalist guide will pick you up from your hotel and take you to the woods just outside of Denali National Park. They'll lead you into the forest, pointing out edible plants and berries along the way. When the guide decides you're at a good spot, they'll stop walking and start teaching you real survival skills. These skills have been used for countless generations by both the indigenous Athabaskan peoples and the pioneers and survivalists who came to test themselves in this rugged land. You'll learn how to choose a good place for a shelter and what to do in the first 5 days of a survival situation. Your guide will show you how to start a fire with nothing but a shoelace. You'll work together to build a shelter that's warm enough to sleep in -without a pad or bag. Expect to come away with a deeper understanding and appreciation for Denali and the wilderness as a whole. You've travelled thousands of miles to get here. Don't limit your vacation to what's on the surface.

So good I had to go with these guys twice! I was lucky enough to go out again with my guide Jade. Jade taught me a new ideology on basic survival skills. Jade allows you to wander along at your own pace and takes the time to ensure you're truly getting the skills he's teaching you. I'm TOTALLY ready to go win "Alone" now. Also enjoyed our lil side quest, hunting for spruce milk caps!
Great time and tons of cool info. Jade was super cool and very knowledgeable. Bonus points for the dad jokes.

Be sure to have good hiking boots, warm socks and rain jacket. They provide hiking poles if needed (which i needed for my knees). Loved learning more about the edible berries (and eating them), and especially what mushrooms NOT to eat! The debris hut shelter would have been fun to completely build out - but that would have taken the whole time. Jade was fun and engaging and helped our 11 year old with bow drill fire. Lots of info in a short amount of time. A good Intro to Primitive Survival!
Survival tour is awesome

This was a great way to end our trip. There are tons of motorized activities in Denali. This was an awesome alternative, human powered option. We did the wilderness survival option. Jade did a thorough job teaching. I have been camping, backpacking and in Boy Scouts for a while and he taught us many new things. I highly recommend this tour if you are looking to learn!
Amazing Denali Experience with Jade – Highly Recommend!

I had such a great time on the Northern Epics Survival Tour—this wasn’t just a hike, it was a full-on hands-on adventure, and Jade made it incredible. He’s super knowledgeable, clearly passionate about the wilderness, and made everything feel exciting and approachable. We went off-trail through the tundra, learned how to build a shelter, start a fire, and even identify edible plants and some not so edible.
