Alaska, our great 49th state, makes up for in size what it lacks in population. With over 33,000 miles of coastline and a land area twice the size of Texas, there are far more things to do in Alaska with kids than can be accomplished with one visit.

Alyeska Resort is Alaska’s only true all-season ski resort. Located just 40 miles south of Anchorage, it makes for an easy starting point to become familiarized with the rugged landscape and outdoor recreation opportunities that Alaska offers. Hike or mountain bike in the summer, and ski, snowboard, or snowshoe in the winter. Events and festivals abound year-round. Add to that a world-class hotel with a fabulous family-friendly indoor pool, it is easy to see why it is one of the best places to visit in Alaska with kids. Get Up Close and Personal with Ancient Ice and Explore Kenai Fjords, National Park. Over half of the world’s glaciers are located in Alaska, and there are several that are easily accessible right from the road system. Perhaps the most family-friendly is Exit Glacier in Seward. Go Dog Sledding in Alaska with Kids. Alaska is known for its working dogs, most famously through the Iditarod Trail Sled Dog Race from Anchorage to Nome. Opportunities abound around the state to meet these amazing dogs and learn about the work that goes into raising and training them. Have an Adventure on the Alaska Railroad. The Alaska Railroad offers a unique experience to take in the scenery while someone else does the driving. With trains running from Seward to Fairbanks and many stops in between, reserving a seat in a glass-domed car affords views of craggy peaks, icy glaciers, miles of wildflowers, and abounding wildlife. Hike and Fish in Alaska’s Emerald Isle, Kodiak Island. Kodiak Island is easily accessible by plane from Anchorage (or ferry from Homer) and is well known as one of the best places to visit in Alaska.If you visit in mid-summer, you will know how it got its nickname, the Emerald Isle. Meet the Creatures that Live Under the Sea. The waters of Alaska may be cold, but they are filled with creatures of all shapes and sizes. With the huge tidal ranges of Kachemak Bay, Homer is the perfect place to meet and learn about some of them. Go Wildlife Spotting. The Alaskan forests and fields are just brimming with wildlife. While you may very well spot them from the road, immersing yourself in their habitat is the best way to spot moose, birds, and many other animals. Head to Creamer’s Field Migratory Waterfowl Refuge in Fairbanks for over 5 miles of family-friendly trails through the meadows and forest. Celebrate Alaska’s Heritage. While Alaska is relatively new to statehood, its history stretches back much further. A great place to get started with learning about Alaskan heritage is the Sitka National Historical Park. Wander the forest trails dotted with towering totems, and watch craftsmen creating and restoring totem poles. Learn about the great history of the area, dating back to the Battle of Sitka in 1804 between the Russians and the native Tlingits. Strike it Rich…or Have Fun Trying. Alaska is well known for its gold mines. Many towns throughout the state offer attractions that allow you to give gold panning a try. Valdez takes it one step further and has an entire Gold Rush Days festival. Have some old-fashioned family fun with parades, canoe races, fish fries, an outdoor market, and more. If you can’t make it to Valdez, the Crow Creek Mine is just 40 miles outside of Anchorage and offers gold panning for all ages, as well as camping and picnic sites in the Chugach National Forest. See Alaska’s Most Famous Peak. Denali, also known as Mt. McKinley (its former name), is the tallest peak in North America. It is perhaps the most famous attraction in Alaska, and for good reason. If you are lucky enough to get a glimpse of it (which is not guaranteed due to frequent clouds), you will understand why. It is massive. But don’t fear, there is much more to see and do at Denali National Park even if the mountain itself is hiding. Make sure to subscribe to find out all the best things to do in your favorite city.
