The adventure
Winter in Alaska — a remote, snow-covered wonderland — might seem intimidating, but this 8-day adventure will win over even the most dedicated sun worshipper. Kick things off in Anchorage, where you’ll explore cultural landmarks and dive into the stories of Alaska’s Indigenous peoples at the Alaska Native Heritage Center. Then, it’s time for some serious fun: go dog sledding with Iditarod champion pups and learn to mush like a pro. Hop aboard the Aurora Winter Train and glide through the frozen tundra to Fairbanks. Walk across the shimmering surface of Matanuska Glacier, visit the festive town of North Pole, and chase the Northern Lights on a thrilling nighttime expedition. Top it all off with a soak in the steamy Chena Hot Springs, and you’ve got a winter adventure you’ll never forget.
Arrive at any time. Attend a welcome meeting in the evening and afterwards choose to have an optional dinner together as a group.
In the morning visit the tranquil beauty of the Eagle River Nature Centre for a hike along one of the many trails located in the mountainous landscape of Chugach State Park. Return to Anchorage for lunch on your own, before a private afternoon visit to the Alaska Native Heritage Centre for a more in-depth look into Alaska’s Indigenous history. Following the tour, the group will spend free time at the museum before a winter evening to explore Anchorage and have dinner on your own.
