We created this guide because we had one big goal: visit all eight of Alaska's national parks in a single trip 

When we started researching, we quickly realized the logistics were unlike anything we'd ever planned before. Flights, ferries, bush planes, weather, rental cars, remote lodges, timing... there are so many moving pieces, and we couldn't find a roadmap that brought it all together. 

So we built our own. 

We spent hundreds of hours researching every park, comparing transportation options, mapping routes, building itineraries, and figuring out what was actually possible. It took months of planning and became one of the most challenging trips we've ever put together. 

It was also one of the most rewarding.

Over 21 days, we visited all eight of Alaska's national parks. We went ice climbing, dog sledding, glacier hiking, sea kayaking, salmon fishing, and whitewater rafting for the first time. We soaked in hot springs, jumped into glacier pools, camped with grizzly bears, kayaked beneath calving glaciers, and crossed the Arctic Circle.

Alaska is the adventure of a lifetime. 

This guide is everything we wish we'd had when we started planning
 
Whether you're visiting all eight parks in one trip, checking Alaska off your national parks list, or starting with just one park, this guide gives you the planning guidance, transportation logistics, activity ideas, practical tips, and lessons we learned along the way—all in one place.

We already spent the hundreds of hours figuring it out. Now we're handing it to you.
