About Anchorage

Anchorage is Alaska's largest city and an important center for transportation, commerce and culture. Located in south-central Alaska between the Chugach Mountains and the waters of Cook Inlet, the city offers spectacular views and easy access to some of the state's vast wilderness.

Gateway to the Wild

Anchorage is known for its dramatic natural surroundings and abundant wildlife. Moose are frequently seen within the city, while nearby mountains, glaciers and forests provide opportunities for hiking, skiing and wildlife watching. The city's long summer days and short winter daylight hours create a distinctive northern atmosphere. Anchorage perfectly combines the conveniences of a modern city with the rugged beauty of the Alaskan wilderness.
