McKinley National Park.

One of the standout features here is the stunning view of North America's tallest mountain, which you can catch from various hiking trails within the state park. The Cascade Trail, in particular, offers some of the best vistas and is moderately challenging but worth every step.
For those who enjoy water activities, Byers Lake is perfect for paddling and fishing. There's a seasonal operator renting kayaks and canoes, and they even offer rafting experiences on nearby rivers. The lake itself is a great spot for fishing, swimming, and wildlife viewing, with trumpeter swans, black bears, and moose often making appearances.

Nearby services can be found in Cantwell to the north or Talkeetna to the south, making it easy to stock up on supplies or grab a bite to eat.
