Byers Lake Nature Walk

Byers Lake Nature Walk

Byers Lake Nature Walk

Take an easy stroll around the pristine and tranquil Byers Lake in Denali State Park. This crystal clear lake is tucked between the Talkeetna Mountains and the Alaska Range, giving you some of the closest and majestic views of Mt. McKinley. Our well-seasoned nature guides are eager to share their knowledge of the Park and its inhabitants. They can help you spot trumpeter swans, loons, beavers, bears, and spawning salmon, so keep your eyes open and cameras ready. Watch for blueberries and cranberries in season, enjoy wildflowers like wild iris, dogwood, and twinflowers, and take home a healing salve made from native plants. The walk also includes a visit to a family's historic log cabin built when the area was home to trappers, traders and gold miners.
