 Hiking through undisturbed pristine
wilderness, you may encounter a vast variety
of wildlife and spectacular views of the
surrounding mountains. Be sure to bring
backpacking equipment if you're planning a
hike. A few hours' hike, a day hike, or a
hike for several days can be planned. The
midnight sun allows long hours for hikers.
Late June and early July provide an
abundance of arctic wildflowers.
Alaska is full of outdoor adventures; Alaska
hiking offers breathtaking views, and a
chance to see Alaska in its natural form.
From the towering peaks of central Alaska to
the glaciers along the Gulf of Alaska. With
over 1400 miles from north to south to over
2300 miles from west to east, Alaska hiking
has some of the most incredible scenery to
be found in the United States. In order to
enjoy all Alaska has to offer, visitors
should get out and experience it for
themselves. Alaska has amazing trail systems
for all abilities – from accessible nature
paths to mountain hikes that are physically
challenging. There are plenty of trails for
hikers of all skill levels. Alaska hiking
can vary from short, guided hikes to rugged,
backcountry treks - catering to both novices
and experts.
*NOTE: Access to the remote Alaskan Bush is
