Denali National Park and Preserve is located in Interior Alaska and contains Denali, the tallest mountain in North America. The park and preserve together cover 9,492 mi˛ (24,585 km˛).
The word "Denali" means "the High One" in the native Athabaskan language and refers to the mountain itself. The mountain was named after president William McKinley of Ohio in 1897 by local prospector William A. Dickey, although McKinley had no connection with the region.
The park is serviced by a single access road around 90 miles in length. Only a small fraction of the road is paved because permafrost and the freeze-thaw cycle create an enormous cost for maintaining the road. Private vehicles are not allowed on unpaved portions; however, visitors may access the interior of the park through buses operated by concession.
