Healy & Into the Wild Bus Replica
Healy
A small service town about 18 km north of the park, where a replica of the 'Magic Bus' from the film Into the Wild stands in the courtyard of a brewery.
Healy is a service town north of the Denali entrance, with cheaper lodging than the entrance area. In the courtyard of the 49th State Brewing company stands a replica of Bus 142, used in filming the 2007 movie Into the Wild, which draws fans for photos. The original bus was airlifted out of the wilderness in 2020 after several hikers died there in drowning accidents. It is now housed at the University of Alaska Fairbanks Museum. Do not follow the Stampede Trail in search of the original site.
