Alaska – The Queen of the North

Into the wild – Your own adventure in a real movie scenery!

When Northern Exposure went down a storm in Europe, everybody dreamt about a journey to that little town where a hefty moose strolls down the main street at the break of dawn. Years later, the astonishing beauty of the austere region was brought up again in the “Into the Wild” movie. Today, you can admire the poetry locked in the landscape with your own eyes. And so you can see a moose, nibbling on the young shoots by the road to Fairbanks, just to cross the street in a slow and dignified fashion, patiently observed by the stumped drivers.

Much of Alaska remains wild, belonging rather to the nature, than to the man. Road are scarce, meandering through the glacial valleys, vanishing in the mountains, stretching miles and miles to nowhere like an endless runway. There are still a number of settlements that can be reached only by river or by plane. Consequently, Anchorage is the home for the largest small plane airport in the world. A plane from Talkeetna will take you for a scenic flight above the highest mountain in North America, known as Denali or, more widely, as Mount McKinley.

Those who dream about a summer salmon fishing trip, about wandering through wilderness, fireweeds blooming by the side of the road, the taste of wind and freedom, the boundless terrain and palpable tranquility, they can make their dreams come true as early as August. Alaska has never been so close before.
