Wrangell-St. Elias is the largest national park in the United States — bigger than Switzerland — and its remoteness in south-central Alaska makes it a strong bet for aurora viewing in the dark months. The McCarthy Road gives limited but real vehicle access into an otherwise roadless landscape of glaciers and volcanic peaks.
Drive from Toronto: Reached via the McCarthy Road from Chitina, Alaska, about a 5-hour drive from Anchorage; the road is gravel and rough for its full length.
Best time of year: Late August through April for dark-enough nights to view aurora, as with the rest of interior Alaska.
