Denali road cameras and conditions

Check Denali Park Road access and nearby Parks Highway reports. The map covers a 60-mile radius around Denali, not the whole drive from Anchorage or Fairbanks.

The September 28, 2026 feed check returned one Parks Highway camera and the NPS Eielson mountain webcam. Eielson is a scenic view, not a Park Road traffic camera. Check NPS conditions for park access.

The roads to Denali

Printable map

Denali Park Road is inside the national park. AK-3, the Parks Highway, is the approach road from Anchorage and Fairbanks. The two roads have different operators and different access rules.

Denali Park Road

Denali Park Road runs 92 miles to Kantishna. During summer bus operations, private vehicles can drive to Savage River at mile 15. After buses stop in September, NPS allows private vehicles to Teklanika River at mile 30, weather permitting, through October 15. Snow or ice can close the road earlier at park headquarters. Check the NPS seasonal access page.

Pretty Rocks bridge is complete

NPS announced completion on September 3, 2026. The bridge crosses the landslide near mile 45. Hikers and cyclists could cross from August 27, but buses were limited to East Fork at mile 43 for the 2026 season. Full bus service is expected in 2027. See the NPS bridge update.

AK-3, the Parks Highway

AK-3, the George Parks Highway, is the approach from Anchorage and Fairbanks. Alaska State Parks lists Denali View South at mile 134.8, near mile 135, and Denali View North at mile 162.7. Both are in Denali State Park, outside the national park.

What the map covers

AK511 supplies highway reports. NPS supplies the Eielson mountain view, and NIFC supplies fire locations. The map filters each feed to 60 miles from the summit. It does not establish whether Denali Park Road is open.

Watch it live while you drive

MileCheck shows your mile marker on AK-3 as you drive. The mile marker works without a signal. Camera images and alerts need a connection.
