    The Denali National Park Visitor Center is a must stop when visiting the park. Inside of the Visitor Center itself are exhibits and a short film about the history, environment, and ecology of Denali National Park. You can also get park and trail maps, chat with rangers, who are invaluable resources, and visit the gift shop. The Visitor Center is also where you can obtain passes and permits. There is wifi and restrooms for you to use there as well. Several trailheads are accessible from just outside the facility.

      At the Visitor Centre you can find all the information you need about Denali State Park. You can also visit exhibitions, watch the park film and buy the entry permit.

        Besides watching the big-screen movies etc, here you get your mandatory overpriced bus tickets (no private cars inside the park except with a valid campground reservation), book campgrounds, and, at the backcountry office next door, the hiking permits with bear container and obligatory training, by far the best thing (and best deal) to do in the park.
