5 days in Anchorage Itinerary

Home to nearly half of Alaska's population, the port city of Anchorage covers a staggering area of over 4,900 sq km (1,900 sq mi) surrounded by mountains.

Visiting Alaska Wildlife Conservation Center and Chugach National Forest will get you outdoors. Anchorage Museum at Rasmuson Center and Tony Knowles Coastal Trail are good opportunities to explore the local culture. Step out of Anchorage to go to Whittier and see Boat Tours & Water Sports, which is approximately 1h 25 min away. There's much more to do: contemplate the long history of Alaska Native Heritage Center, examine the collection at Alaska Jewish Museum, trek along Flattop Mountain Trail, and get to know the resident critters at Alaska Zoo.

Planning Anchorage trip won't be overwheling when you use's Insprock itinerary maker.

Expect a daytime high around 66°F in June, and nighttime lows around 51°F. Wrap up your sightseeing on the 26th (Fri) early enough to travel back home.
