Today, remote areas are enjoyed by residents and visitors for hunting, fishing and nature expeditions. Remote lodges and camps are scattered throughout the Valley. Most travel to remote lodges is by air taxi. Some lodges cater to snowmachiners and dog mushers in the winter. Accommodations and services vary. Check with individual lodges to see what they have to offer.
Many places in the Valley serve as "jumping off points" to remote Alaska, including the Lake Louise Recreation Area (turnoff at Mile 159.8. Glenn Highway 1). Enjoy the area's year-round adventure, including lake trout fishing, views of Tazlina Glacier, snowmachining and cross country skiing. Lodges, campground, and public boat launch are available to help you launch your expedition.
Other areas include salmon fishing off the Skwenta, wildlife viewing and berry picking in the Talkeetna Mountains or enjoying the rugged beauty on the Denali Highway.
For flightseeing trips, guided fishing, back country treks, or custom tours, contact businesses in the "Vacation Fundamentals" section of the website. A professional guide is always recommended when venturing into Alaska's wilderness.
