What To Expect
Enjoy transport from your Healy hotel and meet your guide for a personal tour of the rugged Alaskan wilderness. Begin with a brief safety training and information course. Learn the specific functions of your 4WD ATV machine then hop onboard for a practice drive, making sure you’re completely comfortable before heading out into the back country. If you prefer not to drive, you can join your guide on their 2-person vehicle. Once fitted with the proper helmet, safety goggles, gloves, and optional rain gear, it's time to be on your way. Head out onto the area’s old coal mining trails, which spill out onto the Dry Creek River Bed — an excavation site for Athabascan Indian artifacts. Stop to explore a broken-down cabin across the river and admire the local flora while soaking up the surrounding scenery. Continue up Black Diamond Peak for breathtaking views of the entire Healy Valley. Keep an eye out for wildlife and learn about local history from your professional guide as you go. Take frequent breaks to savor the mountain air, snap pictures, and simply bask in the beauty of the wild Alaska tundra on this thrilling ATV journey. Your tour concludes with hotel drop-off.

5.00This was an incredible adventure! I had never ridden an ATV before and was a bit nervous, and with the rain and hail I almost opted out. So glad I persevered and rode the solo ATV! The staff’s enthusiasm was contagious and made the experience even better!
A scenic place for a great ride

5.00Great evening ride. Well organised and guide was a great font of knowledge about the location and geology. Gunther did an awesome job looking after us. Dinner was appropriate. Cannot fault this crew, and the location is awesome - Denali area scenery.
You won’t forget this one

5.00A lot of fun! Not super sporty, but a beautiful off road tour. Treasure and George were our guides and did an excellent job keeping us safe and pointing out things of interest.
Lots of Fun!

4.00Lots of fun. Full two and a half hours of ATVing. The guide Elisha was great, kept leading me to more challenging routes as my skills improved. Riding around and through the river was the best.
A little Lie never hurt anyone

5.00This was a surprise adventure for my husband. I told him we were going bird watching and he was down for that but when the Black Diamond bus came to pick us up I had to tell him. A guy in line asked him if he was going to play golf and he said no we are going bird watching. The guy just laughed. Much to his surprise we weren't going bird watching. We had a great time with our group. Dinner was wonderful and the ride was gorgeous. ATV's were in great riding condition and I felt safe the entire time. I would recommend this to anyone. I will say "you only go as fast as the slowest rider" so keep that in mind. I believe our max speed at a given time was 16mph on a straight path. It definitely gave you a chance to enjoy the scenery. We didn't get lucky enough to see wildlife, but it was a fantastic time and spent a great amount of time on the trails.
Great experience
