Fall is a great time to visit the park if you want to see the beautiful fall foliage accompanied by wildlife.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Summer is the most popular time of the year to visit Wrangell St Elias National Park<\/strong>, with <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/andreakuuipoabroad.com\/alaska-in-july\/\">July<\/a><\/strong> and <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/andreakuuipoabroad.com\/alaska-in-august\/\">August<\/a><\/strong> being the busiest months. This is when the tour operations, bar, shuttles, shops, and restaurants are open (May 15 to September 15). You\u2019ll also get to experience better weather and have more opportunities to see wildlife.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">One of my favorite summer weekends to visit McCarthy is during the Fourth of July. Usually, the weather is great and there are a lot of fun activities going on like the 4th of July Parade and live music all weekend.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Winter is quiet in the park as some access is limited and most facilities are closed for the season. However, this makes it a great time for winter activities, including Northern Lights viewing, winter camping, fat biking, xc skiing, and snowshoeing.<\/p>\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"819\" height=\"1024\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-12528\" srcset=\"https:\/\/andreakuuipoabroad.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/wrangell-st-elias-national-park-12-819x1024.jpg 819w, https:\/\/andreakuuipoabroad.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/wrangell-st-elias-national-park-12-240x300.jpg 240w, https:\/\/andreakuuipoabroad.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/wrangell-st-elias-national-park-12-768x960.jpg 768w, https:\/\/andreakuuipoabroad.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/wrangell-st-elias-national-park-12-600x750.jpg 600w, https:\/\/andreakuuipoabroad.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/wrangell-st-elias-national-park-12.jpg 1080w\" data-lazy-sizes=\"(max-width: 819px) 100vw, 819px\" src=\"https:\/\/andreakuuipoabroad.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/wrangell-st-elias-national-park-12-819x1024.jpg\"\/><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"819\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/andreakuuipoabroad.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/wrangell-st-elias-national-park-12-819x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-12528\" srcset=\"https:\/\/andreakuuipoabroad.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/wrangell-st-elias-national-park-12-819x1024.jpg 819w, https:\/\/andreakuuipoabroad.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/wrangell-st-elias-national-park-12-240x300.jpg 240w, https:\/\/andreakuuipoabroad.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/wrangell-st-elias-national-park-12-768x960.jpg 768w, https:\/\/andreakuuipoabroad.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/wrangell-st-elias-national-park-12-600x750.jpg 600w, https:\/\/andreakuuipoabroad.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/wrangell-st-elias-national-park-12.jpg 1080w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 819px) 100vw, 819px\"\/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading has-text-align-center\"><strong>Wrangell St Elias National Park Map<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Wrangell St Elias National Park is huge!

If you need help hauling your luggage across the bridge, you will find hand carts near the shuttle shelter.<\/p>\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Free<\/strong> <strong>Shuttle<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The <strong>Copper Town Shuttle<\/strong> is a free shuttle that offers transportation services from the footbridge to McCarthy Center Store and Kennicott. The shuttle leaves for McCarthy twice an hour from 8:45 a.m. to 6:45 p.m. The shuttle leaves McCarthy Center Store for Kennicott Mine every hour on the half hour from 8:30 a.m. until 6:30 p.m. The last shuttle comes back from Kennicott Mine at 7 p.m. Always check the shuttle schedule with the driver as times can change.<\/p>\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Paid<\/strong> <strong>Shuttle<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The <strong>Blackburn Heritage Shuttle<\/strong> offers transportation services from the footbridge to McCarthy and Kennecott. This shuttle operates on an hourly schedule. You can purchase a day pass from the McCarthy Center Store. It usually costs $5 each way, but check with them for the current price. <\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you\u2019ve booked a tour, you will most likely be offered a pickup at the footbridge. Check with your tour guide to confirm.<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>On Foot or Bike<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">After parking near the end of McCarthy Road, you will have to walk or bike across the footbridge. If you don\u2019t feel like waiting for a shuttle, you can walk 1 mile on the road or try to hitch a ride from one of the friendly locals. <\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you\u2019re camping near Kennicott River, biking is a fun and quick way to get in and out of McCarthy and you can bike along the Wagon Road Trail to Kennecott Mine.<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Off Road Vehicles<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Off Road Vehicles are permitted on Trail Creek Trail, Lost Creek Trail, and Soda Lake Trail along Nabesna Road but <strong>recreational users must obtain a permit<\/strong>. In Kennecott, ATV access is limited to private property owners and their guests.

You should be comfortable route finding, using navigation devices and maps, traversing various terrains like glaciers and rivers, and know how to handle any unexpected injuries or other emergencies.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I really enjoyed my week-long backpacking trip along the <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/andreakuuipoabroad.com\/iceberg-lake-bremner-mine-wrangell-st-elias-backpacking\/\">Seven Pass Route<\/a><\/strong>. Other common backpacking routes in Wrangell St Elias National Park are The Goat Trail, Skolar Pass, Dixie Pass, and Nikolai Pass.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Permits are not required for the backcountry, but it\u2019s recommended to complete a backcountry itinerary form at the visitor centers and ranger stations or email at <a href=\"https:\/\/andreakuuipoabroad.com\/cdn-cgi\/l\/email-protection\" class=\"__cf_email__\" data-cfemail=\"3b4c49484f64595a585058544e554f49427b554b48155c544d\">[email\u00a0protected]<\/a>.<\/p>\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"731\" alt=\"backcountry camping wrangell st elias national park\" class=\"wp-image-8466\" srcset=\"https:\/\/andreakuuipoabroad.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/IMG_4545-1024x731.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/andreakuuipoabroad.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/IMG_4545-300x214.jpg 300w, https:\/\/andreakuuipoabroad.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/IMG_4545-768x548.jpg 768w, https:\/\/andreakuuipoabroad.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/IMG_4545-600x428.jpg 600w, https:\/\/andreakuuipoabroad.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/IMG_4545.jpg 1350w\" data-lazy-sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" src=\"https:\/\/andreakuuipoabroad.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/IMG_4545-1024x731.jpg\"\/><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"731\" src=\"https:\/\/andreakuuipoabroad.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/IMG_4545-1024x731.jpg\" alt=\"backcountry camping wrangell st elias national park\" class=\"wp-image-8466\" srcset=\"https:\/\/andreakuuipoabroad.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/IMG_4545-1024x731.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/andreakuuipoabroad.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/IMG_4545-300x214.jpg 300w, https:\/\/andreakuuipoabroad.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/IMG_4545-768x548.jpg 768w, https:\/\/andreakuuipoabroad.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/IMG_4545-600x428.jpg 600w, https:\/\/andreakuuipoabroad.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/IMG_4545.jpg 1350w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\"\/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading has-text-align-center\"><strong>Top Tour in Wrangell St Elias National Park<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">My favorite tour in Wrangell St Elias National Park is a <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.getyourguide.com\/mccarthy-alaska-l32614\/mccarthy-wrangell-st-elias-icefield-90-minute-flight-tour-t439912\/?partner_id=9BN7SOV&amp;utm_medium=online_publisher&amp;placement=content-middle&amp;cmp=wrangellguide\">flightseeing tour<\/a><\/strong>.

Plus, it\u2019s a great place to grab a drink and listen to live music.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Another place to get good beers and good burgers is the <strong>Golden Saloon<\/strong>, which is the town bar. <strong>Kennecott Glacier Lodge<\/strong> and the Salmon and Bear Restaurant in McCarthy Lodge offer a bit of fine dining.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Meatza Wagon<\/strong> is the local food truck near Kennecott Mine and dishes up subs, tacos, and more!<\/p>\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"731\" alt=\"meatza wagon kennecott mccarthy\" class=\"wp-image-12526\" srcset=\"https:\/\/andreakuuipoabroad.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/wrangell-st-elias-national-park-8-1024x731.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/andreakuuipoabroad.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/wrangell-st-elias-national-park-8-300x214.jpg 300w, https:\/\/andreakuuipoabroad.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/wrangell-st-elias-national-park-8-768x548.jpg 768w, https:\/\/andreakuuipoabroad.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/wrangell-st-elias-national-park-8-600x428.jpg 600w, https:\/\/andreakuuipoabroad.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/wrangell-st-elias-national-park-8.jpg 1350w\" data-lazy-sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" src=\"https:\/\/andreakuuipoabroad.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/wrangell-st-elias-national-park-8-1024x731.jpg\"\/><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"731\" src=\"https:\/\/andreakuuipoabroad.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/wrangell-st-elias-national-park-8-1024x731.jpg\" alt=\"meatza wagon kennecott mccarthy\" class=\"wp-image-12526\" srcset=\"https:\/\/andreakuuipoabroad.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/wrangell-st-elias-national-park-8-1024x731.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/andreakuuipoabroad.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/wrangell-st-elias-national-park-8-300x214.jpg 300w, https:\/\/andreakuuipoabroad.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/wrangell-st-elias-national-park-8-768x548.jpg 768w, https:\/\/andreakuuipoabroad.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/wrangell-st-elias-national-park-8-600x428.jpg 600w, https:\/\/andreakuuipoabroad.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/wrangell-st-elias-national-park-8.jpg 1350w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\"\/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-css-opacity\"\/>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading has-text-align-center\"><strong>Answering Your Questions<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>How many days do you need in Wrangell St Elias National Park?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I recommend at least 2 nights to explore Wrangell St Elias National Park.

Take your fishing pole to Strelna Lake and Silver Lake near Chitina, or Long Lake near McCarthy.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Is there a store in the area?<\/strong>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you need some food, ice or supplies, there is a small general store in McCarthy that has the basics. You can also pick up a few things like ice in Chitina. I recommend getting what you need in a larger town or city that\u2019s on your way as it will be cheaper.<\/p>\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-css-opacity is-style-wide\"\/>\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Pin For Later<\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Are you planning to visit Wrangell St Elias National Park?
