Travel Perks: Explore Anchorage, AK

Anchorage is a gateway to Alaska’s wild beauty — think glacier cruises, whale-watching, and hiking in Chugach State Park right outside the city. Explore the Tony Knowles Coastal Trail for scenic biking and views of Cook Inlet, visit the Anchorage Museum and the Alaska Native Heritage Center for culture and history, or take weekend trips to the Kenai Peninsula for fishing and wildlife viewing.
