About Fairbanks

Fairbanks, Alaska is a bold and fiercely self-reliant city situated in the Tanana River valley in the heart of interior Alaska, approximately 500 kilometres north of Anchorage and just 320 kilometres south of the Arctic Circle, and is the second-largest city in Alaska and the undisputed capital of the Alaskan interior — a frontier city of extraordinary natural drama, genuine wilderness immensity, and a community character forged by the particular demands of life at the edge of the habitable world, where winter temperatures regularly plunge below minus 40 degrees, the summer sun refuses to set for weeks at a time, and the northern lights blaze across the sky in curtains of green and violet fire that are among the most breathtaking natural spectacles on earth.

Fairbanks is the premier destination in the United States for viewing the aurora borealis — its position beneath the Auroral Oval, its long winter nights, and its relatively low precipitation combine to create viewing conditions of exceptional quality from late August through April, drawing visitors from Japan, China, Europe, and across the world to witness a phenomenon of such overwhelming natural beauty that no photograph or description fully prepares the first-time observer for the reality of standing beneath a sky alive with shifting, dancing light. The University of Alaska Fairbanks, a research institution of genuine Arctic and subarctic scientific distinction whose Geophysical Institute operates the most sophisticated aurora monitoring and research program in the world, gives the city an intellectual anchor and a scientific culture deeply rooted in the extraordinary natural environment that surrounds it.

Fairbanks sits at the northern terminus of the Alaska Highway and the Alaska Railroad, making it the logistical gateway to the vast Alaskan interior and the jumping-off point for some of the most remote and spectacular wilderness in the world — Denali National Park and Preserve, home to North America's highest peak at 6,190 metres, lies just 200 kilometres to the south, while the Gates of the Arctic National Park, the most remote and least visited national park in the United States, stretches across the Brooks Range to the north in a wilderness of such primeval scale and silence that it represents one of the last truly untouched landscapes on the planet. The Dalton Highway, stretching 670 kilometres north from Fairbanks to Deadhorse on the Arctic Ocean, is one of the most dramatic and demanding drives in North America.

Top attractions include the outstanding Museum of the North at the University of Alaska Fairbanks — a striking contemporary building housing an exceptional collection of Alaska Native art, natural history specimens, and geological and cultural artifacts that is the finest museum of its kind in the state — the El Dorado Gold Mine offering immersive gold rush history and gold panning experiences, the Chena Hot Springs Resort just outside the city offering year-round geothermal soaking and outstanding aurora viewing, the beloved summer Midnight Sun Festival and winter Ice Alaska competition whose world-class ice sculptures transform the city each February into an outdoor gallery of frozen artistry.

With its extraordinary aurora viewing, gateway position to Denali and the Arctic wilderness, outstanding university museum, genuine frontier character, and a community warmth and resilience that thrive in conditions that would defeat less determined souls, Fairbanks is an interior Alaska city of raw natural magnificence and enduring frontier spirit.

Its airport code is FAI (Fairbanks International Airport).
