Summer (June to August):
Enjoy warm temperatures, long daylight hours, and clear conditions for ATV tours, hiking, and fishing.
Winter (November to March):
Ideal for snowmobiling, dog sledding, ice fishing, and Northern Lights viewing—with fresh snow and dark skies.
Spring and Fall (April, September):
Great for flexible schedules, fewer crowds, and a mix of winter and summer conditions.
No matter when you visit, we’ll help you build a trip packed with unforgettable moments, custom activities, and real Alaskan adventure.

We offer customizable overnight adventures that take you deep into the Alaskan backcountry—away from light pollution and into some of the best Northern Lights viewing locations in the state, like Hatcher Pass. Whether you want to add a one-night aurora add-on or build a full multi-day tour around it, we can help you plan the perfect mix of daytime activities and nighttime viewing.

Booking early is always a good idea, especially if you’re planning a custom tour with multiple activities or overnight stays. It gives you more flexibility with scheduling, helps ensure gear and guides are available, and allows time to fine-tune the details of your trip.

We recommend bringing warm base layers, insulated gloves, wool socks, and waterproof outerwear. For winter trips, bring a hat that covers your ears and something to protect your face from the wind. Sunglasses or goggles are also helpful on sunny or snowy days. If you’re staying overnight, pack personal items, sleepwear, and any medications you may need.

Their real-time aurora forecast is a valuable tool for timing your tour and understanding the science behind the lights.

While not all of our tours take place in parklands, their advice applies broadly to wilderness travel in Alaska’s changing conditions.
