Activities & Recreation in Fairbanks, Alaska
There's nothing like dog sledding in Fairbanks, Alaska. This pristine winter wonderland boasts incredible ways to explore the Alaskan tradition of dog mushing. Fairbanks offers great opportunities to learn about dog sledding, races such as the Yukon Quest, or even go on a guided excursion with one of our great local mushers.
See the Northern Lights from a heated "aurorium" cabin, on an overnight dog sled trip, by snow cat tour to a panoramic vista, on a horse drawn sleigh, or on a flight above the Arctic Circle. Ask the front desk for a wake-up call; if the aurora appears, they will awaken you. No guarantees, but the longer you're here, the better your chances of seeing a great display.
Summer offering include world class rafting, fishing, hiking and more. Fairbanks is the jumping off point for many “bush” activities and eco-tourism opportunities. With the sun lingering for nearly 24 hours in the summer, Fairbanks offers some fantastic golf opportunities, minus the unavailable tee times.
