Winter in Alaska

Alaska is the perfect winter destination with spectacular opportunities for winter activities, adventure and recreation.

Much of Alaska is blanketed with pristine white, fluffy stuff from mid-October through early April, sparkling under brilliant blue skies that burn into bright starry Alaska nights.

Head north to Fairbanks to view the Aurora Borealis or the World Ice Art Championships. Watch the start of the Iditarod Trail Sled Dog Race® in Anchorage and fly to Winterlake Lodge, a check point for competitors in the race. Experience world class skiing at the Alyeska Resort, or base yourself in the heart of a winter wonderland at Iniakuk Lake Wilderness Lodge for unlimited cross country skiing and snowshoeing.

Take the opportunity to experience the ultimate winter paradise, winter in Alaska.
