Times to Travel
Temperatures are somewhat mild late May through early September and in the opinion of many, it's the best time to visit. Those (summer-like) weather conditions attract large crowds to the national parks in the south, and to the rugged Kenai Peninsula.
Winter in Alaska is also strongly recommended, as it's the season of northern lights, local festivals, wildlife viewing, outdoor activities including dog mushing, fishing, hunting, and some of the world's best cross-country and downhill skiing.
