Wrangell-St. Elias National Park, the largest national park in the United States, is an immense wilderness in southeastern Alaska where nine of the sixteen highest peaks in North America, including the eponymous Mount St. Elias, rise dramatically from the landscape. This land of unparalleled grandeur boasts colossal icefields that feed some of the world's largest glaciers, such as the tidewater Hubbard Glacier and the sprawling Malaspina Glacier, offering breathtaking vistas of jagged, snow-capped mountains, vast braided river valleys, and ancient forests. Its raw, untamed environment provides an array of outdoor activities for the adventurous, from challenging backcountry backpacking and mountaineering expeditions on untouched peaks to thrilling river rafting, sea kayaking among icebergs, and scenic flightseeing tours that reveal the park's immense scale and dramatic geology from above.
