Wednesday, September 3, 2025 - Copper River Princess Wilderness Lodge
Today’s highlight is a Kennecott Explorer excursion into Wrangell St. Elias National Park. Let us do the driving as you enjoy the beautiful Copper River Valley! Your local driver-guide will point out the highlights of the area as you pass through the farming community of Kenny Lake and the historic town of Chitina. From there the road enters Wrangell St Elias National Park. The 60 miles of road from Chitina are gravel and sit directly on the old railroad bed. At the end of the road, you will get off at the footbridge with tickets to catch the McCarthy bus that will take you to the final 4½ miles into the historic mill town of Kennecott. You will have approximately five hours on your own to explore the area so make sure you visit the Kennecott Visitor Center and speak with a local Ranger! Travel time is approximately 3 ½ hours each way with a total tour duration of 12.75 hours. This tour is not suitable for guests with back or mobility issues.

Later, return to your bungalow-style room with its wood-burning stove and sun porch for an evening of pure relaxation.
