Анцхораге

Обилазак града Анкориџа: Почевши од центра града где је град почео у области Схип Цреек, а сада је такође окупиран од стране Аљаске железничке станице. Погледајте на брзину лососа у потоку и посматрајте рибу која трчи уз поток. Гледајте како локално становништво покушава да улови лососа. Следеће погледајте Парк земљотреса, који сада стоји на земљи у течном стању – гутајући обалну линију када је земљотрес „Великог петка“ потресао Енкориџ у марту 1964. Следеће ћете видети језеро Худ, које је највећа и најпрометнија база флоат авиона на свету. Лаке Хоод је одлично место за опуштање и гледање бројних слетања и полетања авиона. Затим се вратите у центар где ћете видети цео центар града. Док уживате у вожњи, обавезно приметите чувено цвеће у Анцхорагеу и сјајне трговачке зоне! Отићи ћемо било где у Анцхораге након завршетка турнеје.

Турнагаин Арм Дриве

Јужно од Енкориџа, аутопут Сјуард грли драматичне обале Турнагаин Арма, вероватно једног од најлепших деоница аутопута у Америци. Планине од 3000 стопа у Државном парку Чугач издижу се са ваше леве стране. На десној страни, пространи, понекад широки четири миље равни Турнагаин Арм као да се протежу као равница до супротних обала залива Кук, где мамутске нагнуте планине нагло заустављају своје равно пространство. Сваки окрет открива још једно сценско чудо.

Центар за заштиту дивљих животиња Аљаске

Погледајте најпознатије животиње Аљаске изблиза у природном окружењу. Током ове посете добићете сјајне слике правих живих медведа, лоса, мошуса, карибуа, бизона и још много тога.

Уточиште за птице Поттер Марсх

Поттер Марсх је дрвена стаза за шеталиште дуга 0,5 миље која је паралелна са аутопутем Сјуард у Енкориџу и позната је по невероватном посматрању дивљих животиња, посебно за посматрање птица. То је део приобалног резервата за дивље животиње Анцхораге у дужини од 16 миља, и представља одличан додатак сваком итинерару Енкориџа.

5

Белуга Поинт

Ово је популарна станица док путујете аутопутем Сјуард. Овде ћете наћи поглед од 180 степени на Турнагаин Арм. Постоји пространо подручје за гледање са уочевима и знаковима за тумачење. Ово је одлично место за посматрање плиме. Надолазећа плима се протезала целом ширином Турнагаин Арма и може бити висока шест стопа док јури. Пазите на кајакаше и сурфере који јашу талас неколико миља. Потражите белуга китове који се котрљају по сурфу. Обавезно проверите распоред плиме и осеке за најбоља времена да видите овај природни феномен.

6

Гирдвоод

Гирдвоод је „један од 10 најлепших градова на Аљасци“ и налази се само 25 миља јужно од Енкориџа. Веома активна заједница која нуди бициклизам, скијање, рафтинг, пецање, планинарење, испирање злата и разгледање у прелепом окружењу северне прашуме. Глациер Валлеи је дом јединог већег скијалишта на Аљасци, одмаралишта Алиеска.

7

Скијалиште Алиеска

Возите се сликовитом вожњом од три до седам минута од одмаралишта Алиеска до врха планине Алиеска. На надморској висини од 2300 стопа, сведочите леденим погледима на рукавац Турнагаин, до седам „висећих“ глечера и бескрајних врхова дубоко у планинском ланцу Чугач. Укључен је топли ручак који можете наручити са менија Боретиде Дели.

8

Тхе Роундхоусе у Алиески

Једини музеј на врху планине у држави Аљаска. Роундхоусе се налази на 2.280 стопа изнад нивоа мора. Његов препознатљив осмоугаони облик прво је служио као колиба за загревање, а касније као популарно место окупљања. Пре више од 50 година, 11 становника Гирдвуда је прошло шешир, прикупивши довољно новца за куповину онога што је постало база земљишта за главно скијалиште. Формирали су Алиеска Ски Цорпоратион и развили скијашко подручје које је било мало имовине, али обећавало. Учинили су то јер су схватили да будућност долине лежи на њеним златним падинама. Нашли су француског барона који је делио њихов сан. Франсоа де Гунзбург је поставио пома лифт, изградио ски стазе, дневни боравак и наручио Цхаир 1, двоструку жичару од 5700 стопа која се уздизала 2000 вертикалних стопа. Горњи крај жичаре постао је познат као Роундхоусе.

Anchorage

City Tour of Anchorage: Starting downtown where the city began in the Ship Creek area and now also occupied by Alaska Railroad Depot. Take a quick look at the salmon in the creek and watch the fish running up the stream. Watch the locals trying to catch the salmon. Next see the Earthquake Park, which now stands on the land liquefied – swallowing the coast line when the “Good Friday” earthquake rocked Anchorage in March of 1964. Next you will get to see Lake Hood, which is the largest and busiest floatplane base in the world. Lake Hood is a great place to relax and watch the many landings and takeoffs of floatplanes. Then back to downtown where you get to see a whole downtown area. While enjoying the ride make sure to notice Anchorage’s famous flowers and great shopping areas! We will drop off anywhere in Anchorage after the tour ends.

Turnagain Arm Drive

Just south of Anchorage, the Seward Highway hugs the dramatic shorelines of Turnagain Arm, arguably one of the most beautiful stretches of highway in America. Chugach State Park's 3000-foot mountains jut up on your left. On the right, the sprawling, sometimes four-mile-wide flats of Turnagain Arm seem to stretch like a plain to the opposite shores of Cook Inlet, where mammoth sloping mountains abruptly stop their flat expanse. Each turn reveals another scenic wonder.

11

Alaska Wildlife Conservation Center

View Alaska's most famous animals up close in a natural setting. During this visit you'll get great pictures of real live Bears, Moose, Muskox, Caribou, Bison, and more.

12

Potter Marsh Bird Sanctuary

Potter Marsh is a 0.5-mile wooden boardwalk trail that parallels the Seward Highway in Anchorage and is known for it’s incredible wildlife viewing, especially for bird watching. It’s part of the 16-mile Anchorage Coastal Wildlife Refuge, and it makes a great addition to any Anchorage itinerary.

13

Beluga Point

This is a popular stop as you travel the Seward Highway. Here you'll find 180 degree views of Turnagain Arm. There's an extensive viewing area with spotting scopes and interpretive signs. This is an excellent spot to watch the bore tide. The incoming tide stretched the entire width of Turnagain Arm and can be six feet high as it rushes in. Watch for kayakers and surfers riding the wave for several miles. Look for beluga whales rolling in the surf. Be sure to check tide schedules for the best times to view this natural phenomena.

14

Girdwood

Girdwood is “One of the 10 Most Beautiful Towns in Alaska” and located just 25 miles south of Anchorage. A very active community offering biking, skiing, rafting, fishing, hiking, gold panning and sightseeing in a beautiful, northern rainforest setting. Glacier Valley is home to Alaska’s only major ski resort, Alyeska Resort.

15

Alyeska Ski Area

Take a three to seven-minute scenic ride from Alyeska Resort to the top of Mt. Alyeska. At an elevation of 2300 feet, witness frosty views of the Turnagain Arm, up to seven “hanging” glaciers and endless peaks deep into the Chugach Mountain range. A hot lunch is included which you can order from the menu of the Boretide Deli.

16

The Roundhouse at Alyeska

Only mountain top museum in the state of Alaska. The Roundhouse sits 2,280 feet above sea level. It's distinctive octagonal shape first served as a warming hut, later as a popular gathering place. Over 50 years ago, 11 Girdwood residents passed the hat, raised enough money to purchase what became the land base for a major ski area. They formed the Alyeska Ski Corporation and developed a ski area that was small in assets but big in promise. They did it because they understood that the Valley’s future lay in its golden slopes. They found a French Baron who shared their dream. Francois de Gunzburg installed a poma lift, built ski trails, a day lodge and ordered Chair 1, a 5,700-foot double chairlift that rose 2,000 vertical feet. The upper terminus of the chairlift became known as the Roundhouse.
