A Historic Roadhouse

The Tolovana Roadhouse was built in 1924, and is one of the last original roadhouses along the Nenana-Nome mail route, at a time when dog team delivery was the region’s primary connection to the outside world during the long northern winters. It is a rustic testament to the rich history of interior Alaska and a beacon for backcountry travelers to this day.

A Travelers Outpost

The Tolovana Roadhouse has remained true to its roots as an authentic, welcoming outpost in the wilderness. The main lodge continues to provide a warm safe haven for the trail-weary, and a place for adventurers to soak in the solitude and beauty of the surrounding wilderness, experiencing this incredible piece of history themselves.

Explore the Backcountry

Endless trails lay ready for exploration by snowshoe, ski, dogsled or snowmachine. A sauna awaits at the end of a day’s adventures. Night skies far from the lights of modern settlements offer unparalleled views of the aurora.
