USA Duration: 4 Nights / 5 Days

Back to Packanges
Day 1

Fairbanks

Overview:

Arrive in Fairbanks, rent a car or RV, and drive 10 miles north along the Steese Highway to Silver Gulch Brewery, the northernmost brewery in the United States. This is a great place to catch a late lunch; if you visit on a Wednesday, you can enjoy fresh Pacific oysters that were harvested from Kachemak Bay the day before. Next, make the two-hour drive south on the Parks Highway to the tiny community of Healy, which is just 10 miles north of the entrance to Denali National Park and Preserve. Stop in for dinner and a tasting at the 49th State Brewing Company—the one brewery that rules them all near Denali—and spend the night at one of the local accommodations.

Day 2

Talkeetna & Palmer

Overview:

From Healy, drive south on the Parks Highway for three hours to the notoriously quirky town of Talkeetna. Just how quirky is Talkeetna? The locals elected an orange cat named Stubbs to be the mayor, and many still insist this small climbing, fishing and mining town was the inspiration for the Alaska-themed TV show Northern Exposure. Don’t miss a chance to people-watch from the outdoor deck at Denali Brewing Company’s Twister Creek Restaurant, which sits right on Main Street. Take at least an hour to browse the wonderful gift shops up and down Main Street before you hop back in your car and drive another hour and a half south to the farming community of Palmer, where you can catch a tour and tasting at one of the local brewing companies before finding accommodations for the night.

Day 3

Achorage

Overview:

Alaska’s big city, Anchorage, is about 45 minutes south of Palmer and positively booms with breweries and brewpubs. (The difference is that brewpubs can serve their own food but breweries cannot; however, you can bring your own food with you to the breweries, and sometimes they station food trucks out in the parking lot.) While you’re waiting for your brew destination of choice to open, consider stopping by one of Anchorage’s museums or cultural centers, or hiking one of the popular trails in nearby Chugach State Park.

Day 4

Kenai & Slodotna

Overview:

Take a beautiful three-hour drive south from Anchorage in the scenic, coastal Seward Highway. Your destination is the Kenai Peninsula, where fishing, barbecue restaurants and wildlife viewing reign supreme. Make your first stop in either Kenai or Soldotna, where you can sample an impressive collection of seasonal and year-round beers in one of the local breweries. As long as you’re here, cast a line for sockeye or king salmon in the aquamarine waters of the Kenai River, Alaska’s most fabled freshwater fishery, or book a scenic float trip and look for wildlife on the shore. Spend the night in one of Kenai or Soldotna’s many wonderful bed and breakfasts.

Day 5

Homder

Overview:

An hour and a half south of Soldotna, at the literal end of the road, is Homer. Not only is this town rightfully famous for its art, fishing and food, it’s also home to a couple of brewing companies and an unusual winery that focuses on using local ingredients in its brews. Tour the brewery of your choice, then wander the legendary Homer Spit, a 4-mile finger of land that stretches into Kachemak Bay and is lined with some of the state’s best gift shops and restaurants. This is also a fine place to enjoy a sea kayaking adventure or stroll a sandy beach before turning in for the night. Tomorrow, you’ll make the five-hour drive back to Anchorage to turn in your rental vehicle and catch your flight home.
