DK Eyewitness Alaska

Adventure awaits in the Arctic corner of the world

Whether you want to spot grizzly bears in Denali National Park, uncover the traditions of Alaska's Native groups or race along the scenic Haines Highway, your DK Eyewitness travel guide makes sure you experience all that Alaska has to offer.

Epic in scale and wild to the core, Alaska beckons with snow-crusted peaks, desolate valleys and limitless space to roam. The undulating landscape of wildflower meadows and icy tundra is also home to historic gold rush towns and an array of local breweries - perfect for unwinding after a hike.
