FAIRBANKS, ALASKA IS BOLD, BEAUTIFUL, AND BUILT FOR ADVENTURE

6/6/2025

Fairbanks is far from your average destination. It’s remote, a little wild, and full of amazing experiences that stay with you long after your trip ends.

If you visit in the winter, the northern lights are the main event here. There are tours that take you outside the city lights, some in heated vans, and some to remote cabins or yurts (sturdy round dwellings that are both comfortable and cozy made to withstand the weather conditions). It’s quiet and kind of surreal to watch the sky light up above you. No distractions—just you and nature doing its thing.

In the summer, the sun barely sets. That means you can pack in a full day of hiking, fishing, or even a river float without racing against daylight. Locals are out biking, walking, and making the most of every hour. It’s laid back but active, with a strong magnetic connection to the outdoors.

There’s plenty to do nearby too. Chena Hot Springs (pronounced shee-nah) is about an hour outside of town and makes a great day trip. You can soak in the mineral pools, check out the ice museum, or just unwind and take in the scenery. There are also flightseeing tours over Denali, ATV rides, or chances to visit sled dog kennels and learn about life off the grid.

Fairbanks is the kind of place that offers real adventure. You don’t have to do everything. Just being there—breathing the air, slowing down, and looking up—can be enough.

Thinking about visiting Alaska? Keep Fairbanks in mind. It’s not the easiest place to get to—but that’s the point. If you’re looking for something quieter, wilder, and a little off the map, it’s a trek worth making. 

Reach out if you have any questions about Alaska. I’d love to help answer any questions you have and help you get there when the time feels right.
