Murie Science and Learning Center

A science and education center named after the biologist Murie brothers, serving as the park's only open visitor center in winter.

The Murie Science and Learning Center showcases the park's research, with interactive exhibits including a wolf skeleton, animal skulls and fur specimens, making it well suited to families. In summer, it hosts science talks and field courses. When the Denali Visitor Center closes in winter, this center opens as the winter visitor center, offering snowshoe rentals and trail information. It is also the meeting point for winter aurora-viewing and cross-country skiing tours. Admission is free; opening hours are set by the NPS.
