ARCTIC CIRCLE AIR ADVENTURE
ARCTIC CIRCLE AIR ADVENTURE
Travel north from Fairbanks and wonder at the story of the vast and remote land below. You will witness remnants of the gold mining that continues nearly 100 years after the yellow metal first brought newcomers rushing north. You will see the remarkable Trans Alaska Pipeline, symbolizing the immense changes brought to Alaska's Arctic by the discovery of oil over 30 years ago.
You will have the experience of flying over the expansive Yukon River Valley, home of traditional peoples that sustain their lifestyle and culture as they have for thousands of years. It is a thrill to cross the Arctic Circle.
You will see the rugged and magnificent Brooks Mountain Range as the flight route passes just south of the Gates of the Arctic National Park.
