Οι καλύτερες διαδρομές τρεξίματος Alaska Range

Δεν υπάρχει Merlot εδώ — το ράφι μένει άδειο, ήσυχο, περιμένοντας ένα μπουκάλι που δεν έρχεται ποτέ. Δεν υπάρχει Merlot εδώ — το ράφι μένει άδειο, ήσυχο, περιμένοντας ένα μπουκάλι που δεν έρχεται ποτέ.

Beautiful valley, even in bad weather. You can see some animals, such as ground-nesting gulls, arctic ground squirrels and caribou.

Large beaver dam, with a bit of luck you can also see the beaver.

Wonderful viewpoint. In good, clear weather you can see Mt. Denali from there. Sturdy shoes are recommended, a good level of fitness is required

The northeast summit of Mount Healy is far less traveled than the southeast summit located on the Mount Healy Overlook Trail in the park. This side of the mountain is steep, rocky, and usually super windy. Only mountain runners with route finding and steep mountain running experience should seek to tackle this trail. That being said, this trail offers a real Alaskan mountain-running experience with the promise of solitude the further up the mountain you climb.

The climb up Sugarloaf Ridge follows the Sugarloaf Mountain Trail above Denali Canyon and well above treeline. This trail is just outside the park and sees far fewer visitors than the park trails, but it offers pretty similar views and feelings of solitude. This can be a really tough trail to run on the uphill, but it's a blast to bomb back down towards town.

Once you pass the main overlook on the Mount Healy Trail, the trail immediately becomes more narrow and less defined. It climbs steeply and features way fewer switchbacks than the maintained section of trail. This can be more of a power-hike on the way up than an actual run, but the views and solitude you get up here are hard to find in this part of the park. You'll likely face some stronger winds and colder temperatures up here, so plan accordingly.

This is the site of the main overlook for the Mount Healy Trail. The trail stays maintained up to this point and features a lot of switchbacks to keep the trail from getting too steep. There are great views basically the whole way up the trail once you break out of the trees, and this rocky outcrop is pointed right towards Denali Canyon. If you decide to go past this point, the crowds dwindle immediately.
