Alaska is the kind of place you take in slowly.
Everything about Alaska is massive — from the 90-pound cabbages grown in the Matanuska Valley to the coastline that’s longer than all the other U.S. states combined. North America’s tallest peak, Denali, beckons from the center of the state and its wild, beating heart, Denali National Park. Hike through this vast wilderness, where taiga forests full of pines and spruce stretch below the towering peaks. Sail by the icy beauty of some of the world’s most impressive glaciers, from the Hubbard Glacier and the Tracy Arm Fjord. Cruise to Alaska to rent a bike and pedal along Anchorage’s Coastal Trail for sweeping views of the rugged forests and the expansive ocean. There’s an incredible history to learn about the 49th state and plenty of one-of-a-kind experiences.
