Delicious food and cocktails, right in downtown Fairbanks, with outdoor seating available to catch the sun rays.
Take advantage of the Chena river flowing through town and rent a canoe, raft, or stand up paddle board for the day!
If you need an indoor activity for the kids, we have a wonderful children's museum right downtown!
Fairbanks is known to have a plethora of excellent Thai food. The Thai House is downtown and owned by a local Fairbanks family. Lemongrass Thai, Bahn Thai, and Pad Thai are other delicious options.
A Fairbanks favorite! This trailer/cafe is only open in the summertime and has wonderful homemade sandwiches, sweet treats, and incredible cinnamon rolls.
Our local, homemade ice cream shop just across the street from Bun on the Run. There are even dairy free options to try at Hot Licks!
If you're craving falafel, this is the place to try! Outdoor/indoor seating, a life size game of chess to play, and plenty of vegetarian/vegan options available.
Our summer farmers market is open on Wednesday's and Saturday's. There is produce, food vendors, artists, and often, live music!
If you'd like to stay an extra week in town, Sunday, June 23 will be the local summer solstice festival downtown!
Denali National Park is about a 2 hour drive from Fairbanks, and there are lots of fun things to do there! You can go white water rafting, hiking, see lots of wildlife within the park, and even get some awesome views of Mt. McKinley!
Chena Hot Springs is less than 1 hour outside of Fairbanks, and is a wonderful place to stay or even just visit for a few hours! You can check out the Aurora Ice Museum, the infamous Ice Hotel, visit the sled dogs, and take a dip in the wonderful outdoor hot springs! We highly recommend checking it out!
