Bus Anchorage to Talkeetna

Overview

The Park Connection Motorcoach to Talkeetna is a quick and budget-friendly way to connect to the many activities offered in this offbeat Alaskan town. The route heads north on the Glenn and Parks Highways, past Wasilla, and through the small community of Willow. Sitting up high in the deluxe motorcoach and looking out large picture windows for much of the drive, it's possible for passengers to glimpse Denali through openings in the trees when the weather is clear. The ride concludes in under three hours.

The Park Connection bus line operates two trips daily from Anchorage to Talkeetna. The early morning Denali Express route departs from the Dena'ina Civic Center in downtown Anchorage and drops passengers off at the Talkeetna Alaskan Lodge and downtown Talkeetna. This route is a perfect option for travelers booked on Denali flightseeing trips or Talkeetna tours later in the day. The trip can also be combined with a return motorcoach or train ride for a day trip out of Anchorage.

The afternoon Park to Park route also leaves from the downtown Dena'ina Civic Center. This route only drops passengers at the Talkeetna Alaskan Lodge.
