anchorage

Anchorage might have a big city vibe but it also has a small-town feel. Very few places in the world have this capacity. Anchorage is a city that offers everything from shopping, local brews, and moose sightings to spectacular hiking trails. It offers everything a big city does, but with much more allure and with a greater sense of community.

It is also very easy to get around as well as in and out of Anchorage. If you want to go south you take The Seward Highway, and if you want to go north, take the Glenn Highway. There is never stop and go traffic. Chances are, you’ll usually have the road to yourself. Alaska is wonderful for its simplicity as well as for having its priorities straight. Nature rules above all else, so much so that even billboards are illegal on Anchorage’s highways as they block the stunning scenery…way to go Alaska!

Once you travel to Anchorage you will understand the enormous amount of outdoor activities available.

If you like to hike, swim, mountain climb, ice climb, fish, or bike, you should travel to Anchorage. Apart from being able to enjoy a myriad of nature sports you also have the opportunity of having the wild wilderness all to yourself! Because most of Alaska is uninhabited it is quite common for you to find yourself alone with no one to bother you, just you and nature.  Alaska is not only peaceful for its scenery but also for its lack of crowds.
