The Subarctic region surrounding Fairbanks is famous for its natural landscapes, rich wildlife, and spectacular sights such as the Northern Lights and the midnight sun. Winters here are long, harsh, and extremely cold, typically lasting between 6 to 8 months, with temperatures often dropping below -20°C (-4°F). Summers on the other hand are short but pleasant, lasting only 1 to 3 months, with temperatures reaching a comfortable 15°C to 20°C (59°F to 68°F) and lots of daylight.
The best time to visit is during the long, sunny winter months from November to March, perfect for enjoying a variety of winter sports in the higher elevations. For a trip outside winter, mid-summer (May to August) offers mild, and pleasantly warm weather.
