Backcountry & Hiking
Alaska is full of outdoor
adventures, from the mild to the wild. Picnic near an Ice Age glacier or raft a
raging river. Experience gold rush excitement aboard a sternwheeler or try your
hand fishing for Alaska’s world-class halibut and salmon. Skim the wilderness
in a "bush" plane or helicopter. Or take a flightseeing trip over some of the
most breathtaking mountains in North America. Drive for miles beside a
turquoise glacier-fed river.
Endless Summers
Alaska has some of the most incredible scenery to be found in the United
States. In order to enjoy all Alaska has to offer, visitors must get out and
experience it for themselves.

With
an amazing trail system that snakes through most major communities, Alaska has
a trail for all abilities – from accessible nature paths to mountain hikes that
are physically challenging. Cyclists, joggers and walkers will discover endless
possibilities at their feet. Long-distance riders can use the highways – which
vary in road surface and shoulder width.
For those who prefer water to
land, kayak and canoe enthusiasts have unlimited opportunities to explore
Alaska’s many rivers, streams, lakes and protected coastal waters.
Federal and State campgrounds are
available throughout Alaska. A few even have electrical hookups and dumping
stations. For fee information contact the Alaska Public Lands Information
Center at (907) 271-2737. Private campgrounds are available
throughout the state as well.
