When you think of an Alaska outdoor adventure, it brings a nice
image to mind doesn't it? The thought of Alaska
fishing while spending your outdoor adventure at one
of Alaska's many wilderness lodges is enough to send the most prejudice
serenity seeker clamoring for an Alaska outdoor
adventure package. Maybe you would rather explore. Backpacking,
hiking, climbing, sea kayaking, whitewater rafting and bicycling
are all very popular forms of outdoor recreation. In the winter
you can even enjoy a dog sledding experience, or if you're the extreme
type, you can find skiing, snowboarding and snowmobiling to be some
of the finest you've ever experienced.
Some people come to ride horses in the backcountry, watch the migration
of caribou through the Brooks Range, cruise the Inside Passage,
pan for gold, fish for record salmon and halibut, or take part in
cultural events and festivals celebrating the state's heritage.
The state's visitor industry offers options to accommodate the comfort
level of travelers of all ages and physical abilities. Most visitors
find time to take in flightseeing, walking tours of historical areas,
a day of sportfishing, hiking, bear viewing, skiing, or special
events such as the Golden Days Parade in Fairbanks, the Fur Rendezvous
in Anchorage, the Little Norway Festival in Petersburg, or the end
of the Iditarod Trail Sled Dog Race at Nome. Each community has
its own traditions, and visitors are welcome to participate in events.
