For the ultimate Alaskan holiday, you should include visiting some of the state’s iconic attractions but there’s so much more. If you need some guidance in planning a thrilling escapade across the region, here are some exciting activities that you should definitely consider:
Watching the Northern LightsA lot of travelers plan trips to Alaska in such a way that they get to witness the breathtaking aurora borealis, popularly referred to as Northern Lights. Although the city of Fairbanks is considered to be best suited for aurora sighting because of its atmospheric conditions and geography, the phenomenon may also be viewed from around Anchorage and even Sitka on rare occasions. We do recommend checking the weather and solar forecasts before you venture out to experience this grandeur.
Ridingon a dog sledWhen in Alaska, dog sledging is a must. What is more adventurous than flying over the snow on a sleigh pulled by sled dogs? If you visit during winters, you get the opportunity to ride the traditional sled. During spring and summers, the traditional sled is replaced by sled with wheels or an all-terrain vehicle.
Watching sea lifeIt isn’t uncommon to catch glimpses of a polar bear walking down the road in Kaktovik but let’s not forget there is a vast ocean out there! The prodigious coasts of Alaska are a must visit during summertime as they are bursting with life. Did you know the state is home to eight species of whale?
