Set amid the coastal Chugach Mountains, Anchorage defies popular visions of polar ice caps and frozen tundra. It’s also warmer than you think (averaging 65 degrees in summer), making conditions ideal for sight-seeing or taking on uniquely Alaskan opportunities like arctic biking or touring the fjords of Prince William Sound. In the winter, you can ski, dogsled or do both simultaneously by "skijoring," which is cross-country skiing while being towed by a dog. Hey, it's no crazier a winter sport than the biathlon.

On our Alaska trip, we rented bikes from 4 different places (and we often rent bikes when we travel), and this was by far the best rental place/experience we've had! Mini Pablo was very kind and helpful, showing us a map of the area and where to go/things we might see. The bikes were in great shape and we were lucky that he gave us each a fender for the rear tire, as it had been raining. We rode the Coastal Trail and saw a bunch of moose up close and it was really fun!

Popular biking trail along the coast.
If you have a free day in Anchorage, or just want to explore at your own pace, do yourself a favor, and rent a bike downtown and hit the trail. The trail winds along the coast line as you head towards the airport. You will pass Westchester lagoon, a great place for bird watching, as you leave downtown, and pedal through Earthquake Park. If you go up the hill from the park, at the top you will be rewarded by tremendous panoramic views, and a great spot to watch the airplanes takeoff and land. Further down the trail is Point Woronzof Beach and the Kincaid Park. Along the way be on the lookout for some of Alaska's famous residents, bears and especially moose!
Providing Japanese language aid to travelers as well as making hotel and tour arrangements throughout the state of Alaska.
