An honest, open and friendly hospitality, born of Alaska’s frontier spirit, lives on at the Alaska Railroad. The Alaska Railroad is one of Alaska’s most popular attractions, and is arguably the best way for you to see the real Alaska. Riding the Alaskan rails is an experience that’s impossible to duplicate. Glaciers, mountains, and wildlife fill the ever-changing panorama of your window, making for an easy and luxurious way to experience the unfolding scenery.
The main route taken by a majority of visitors is the Denali Star Train. It is the Alaska Railroad’s flagship route, connecting Anchorage and Fairbanks with stops in Wasilla, Talkeetna and Denali National Park. You will be astounded by the sparkling salmon streams and stands of birch and spruce that come into view, while carpets of fireweed add dramatic purple to the landscape. This route reveals dramatic changes in the landscape as the train journeys toward the rugged peaks of the Alaska Range.
There are other exciting routes available for your Alaskan adventure. They include the Coastal Classic Train, with service from Anchorage to Girdwood and Seward. This train winds through beautiful Alaska wilderness on the southern portion of the Railbelt, offering amazing views of mountains, glaciers and the Place River Valley.
