Two Must-See National Parks in Alaska
After graduating with high honors from Middlesex School and earning awards such as the Sibyl F. Cohane Prize, Matt Kafker began his university education majoring in physics. Alongside keeping up with his studies, Matt Kafker enjoys traveling around the world, internationally and to domestic sites of interest such as Alaska.
As you prepare for an Alaskan adventure, you face an extensive range of choices to view the state’s spectacular natural scenery. Two places in particular to consider visiting are Denali National Park & Preserve and Kenai Fjords National Park.
Denali National Park holds the tallest peak in the United States known as Denali Mountain (also called Mount McKinley). With 6 million acres encompassing everything from river valleys to alpine ranges, the park boasts more than 650 flowering plant species to view during the summer, 169 bird species, and 39 mammal species.
Kenai Fjords National Park offers breathtaking views of glaciers, fjords, and icefields across the Kenai Peninsula. Located south of Anchorage and relatively easy to reach, this park also affords visitors an opportunity to participate in dog sled races.
