Pioneer Park, Fairbanks

Worth a visit if you're in the area, but don't put it high on your agenda. Basically it's a collection of 100+ year old log buildings that were moved from various parts of Fairbanks to Pioneer Park. Each building has a nice placard describing its history. A few of them house museums and the rest are gift shops or restaurants. There is a large, nice playground for kids.

It's hard to describe this place. It's definitely a park - and it does have information about the Pioneers of Alaska - so the name is accurate. The park makes me think of what Disneyland may have ended up looking like if it had 10% of its original budget and no rides other than the railroad and merry-go-round. There's no miniature golf here anymore - so if that's why you've decided to visit... you're outta luck!

We love taking our family to Pioneer park. Great place with plenty of things to do with the family. Local artists and shops available and offer an opportunity to learn about the history of the surrounding area. The train is a great attraction and cheap for the whole family to ride. Food is available as well as restrooms, playground equipment, and the salmon bake. A must visit place in Fairbanks.

One of my favorite places in Fairbanks. There are cute, original to the area log huts, 2 fun playgrounds for the kiddos, & a train ride. There is also the Salmon Bake which features all you can eat prime rib, fried cod, & salmon. We also enjoy the few eateries (Synnyos) and ice cream shops.

This is the cutest place to visit in Fairbanks. They have historical cabins where you can learn about pioneers and do some gift shopping. There is an offering of food trucks, yum! They have a merri-go-round and a train for the kiddos. There is a museum and a play ground. You can get those old-timey portraits taken too. Great place for the whole family.
