If you’re looking for the perfect winter getaway in Alaska, this gorgeous resort is every winter lover’s heaven. Located in the town of Girdwood, the northernmost temperate rainforest in America, this town sees epic amounts of snow each year. So with skiing, ice skating, a Nordic Spa, and more, you need to put Alyeska Resort on your to-do list this year.
Girdwood is Alaska’s winter playground.
Alyeska Resort website Mount Alyeska catches an annual 600” of snowfall each year, and the town fares pretty well, too. As Girdwood is located in the northernmost temperate rainforest in America, high precipitation (that means tons of snow in the winter!) gives the resort a winter fairy tale gleam.
And the resort and town offer a wide array of winter activities.
Alyeska Resort / Facebook Alyeska Resort offers skiing and snowboarding down the mountain and ice skating outside the building. They even offer skates to rent for your use! There’s also incredible cross-country skiing in nearby Moose Meadow.
