Anchorage is Alaska’s largest city and its commercial center, home to roughly two in five Alaskans and the regional offices of the oil companies, Native corporations, banks, engineering firms and federal agencies that run much of the state’s economy. Joint Base Elmendorf-Richardson sits on the city’s northern edge, and Ted Stevens Anchorage International is one of the busiest cargo airports in the world, a refueling point for freighters flying between Asia and North America. Few cities are this defined by aviation: small planes are everyday transportation, and Lake Hood is one of the busiest seaplane bases anywhere.

Much of Alaska can’t be reached by road at all, and the drives that do exist cover long distances. Flying private from Anchorage lets you reach Fairbanks, the Kenai Peninsula or Talkeetna on your own schedule, and choose between the main airport and Merrill Field, a short drive from downtown. Visitors come for the Anchorage Museum and the Alaska Native Heritage Center, hiking in Chugach State Park right at the city’s edge, the scenic drive along Turnagain Arm to Girdwood, and day trips for glacier cruises, fishing and flightseeing over Denali.

Things to do in Anchorage

When to go. Summer is Anchorage’s peak season, with nearly round-the-clock daylight around the June solstice, mild temperatures and the best access to fishing, hiking and glacier trips. September brings fall color and the first northern lights. Winter is long and snowy but lively: Fur Rendezvous fills February, and the ceremonial start of the Iditarod Trail Sled Dog Race comes to downtown in early March, along with spring skiing at Alyeska.
