Alaska has so much to offer, you don’t have to travel far from home to enjoy beautiful scenery, rare wildlife, and endless adventures. With over 365 million acres to explore, you will never lack for something to do. Walk, run, hike, or bike on one of the many nature trails to choose from in over 100 state parks. For those who prefer the water, kayaking or canoeing on the many lakes, streams and rivers provide unique opportunities to view animals such as otters and puffin in their natural habitats. See Alaska from another view as you soar above Mt. McKinley, glaciers, and some secluded backcountry wilderness that would otherwise go unseen. If you are just looking to relax, try taking an ocean day cruise along the coast to popular spots such as Glacier Bay and Prince William Sound. You might even spot some Orcas, sea lions or bears along the way. Some of the world’s best fishing can be found close to home. Try your luck at catching some hefty-sized salmon, halibut and rainbow trout. Alaskan restaurants serve all your favorite delicacies such as smoked salmon and reindeer sausage. When the weather turns cooler, bundle up and spend an adventuresome day skiing, sledding, ice fishing, or taking a cozy sleigh ride with that someone special. No matter the season, Alaska has so many places to go and things to, there is no need to travel any further than your own backyard. |
