Alaska is the premier destination for adventure and ecotourists seeking a personal connection with nature, wilderness and the local people. Fairbanks is a starting point for some great adventures, such as the scenic 160-mile Steese Highway Drive or the McKinley Explorer railroad that runs to Denali National Park and Anchorage. Energetic outdoor types can hike, mountain bike, canoe, cross-country ski or take a slow river-float trip; others can relax on a river cruise aboard an authentic sternwheeler riverboat. Set aside some time for sightseeing and panning for gold in Anchorage. The town's gold mining heritage is reflected at the University of Alaska Museum and Alaskaland Pioneer Park, a Wild West-style theme park that recreates early Fairbanks and includes a replica of a Native American village. Explore Prince William Sound to see the fjords, glaciers and rare wildlife the state is famous for. If you are lucky enough to be in Alaska between late September and early April, you can view the spectacular Northern Lights, or aurora borealis. From whale watching, wildlife and glacier tours to historical towns, there are numerous attractions that make The Last Frontier State a must see vacation destination!
