Alyeska Resort
Alyeska Resort near Anchorage is a winter paradise, with snow-covered mountains of ridgeline after ridgeline that goes on farther than you can see. No other place on the continent can claim such pristine beauty and wondrous backcountry adventures.
The nearby small town of Girdwood welcomes you with the sort of grog and grub and warm hospitality only Alaska can offer. You will be able to please your entire family with things to do, including helicopter flightseeing around Alaska, bear and other wildlife viewings, wildlife conservation center, Nordic and backcountry skiing, Northern Lights viewing, art centers and museums, and plenty more.
Top Skiing in North America
Alyeska Resort was placed in Skiing Magazine’s “Top 25 Resorts in North America.” Similarly, Condé Nast Magazine declared Alyeska has the finest views in all of North America. From the mountain, you’ll be gazing out upon the inland waterways of the Last Frontier. The ski season begins in early November and continues through late April. The resort offers 1,400 skiable acres of ski trails and terrain parks for everyone from beginners to double-black diamond experts. That is 2,500 vertical feet served up under an average of 631 inches of snow per year — over 50 FEET of SNOW! Wrap your mind around that, and you’ll soon realize that skiing and snowboarding here are the best-kept secrets in North America. Don’t worry about your safety or being a novice skier. The mountain’s ski patrol and instructors are true experts in their professions. These dedicated men and women watch out for your and your family’s safety.
Off the Slopes
In southern Alaska, Alyeska is over a thousand miles from the bitter cold of the arctic cap, where the mean temperature is above 20 degrees. The ocean helps keep things warm as well, so you’ll be suffering no discomfort while enjoying all the scenic wonders of Alaska. The resort alone has at least nine restaurants featuring wild game and Alaskan seafood. Enjoy live music at a local pub or order in on an excellent hotel menu. This resort is a true mountain escape with amenities to pamper and persuade you. The spa alone is reason enough to make the trip with yoga classes, massage and facials, and welcoming to small or large groups. The line, “Enjoy the slopes, honey, I’ll see you in a few hours,” comes to mind.
Getting Here
Alaska is truly vast, with hundreds of miles between towns sometimes. But you don’t need to travel far to enjoy superb skiing and snowboarding in the Last Frontier! Getting to Girdwood is pretty much painless. You fly into Anchorage, one of some 200 flights in and out of Ted Stevens Anchorage International each day, and then it’s only 40 miles south on the Seaward Highway, which takes you within four miles of the resort itself. Arrive during daylight hours — you’re sure to be in awe along the way.
