Aurora

A Perfect Place for Aurora Borealis

You never know when the Aurora is going to appear, so having an easily accessible viewing spot is a must when staying in the Fairbanks area.

With Alaska Grizzly’s viewing decks located with easy access from the lodge (and direct access from some of our rooms), you never have to take a long cold walk outside to see the Aurora in action. Just throw on your jacket and step out onto the deck. That way you can at least determine whether it is worth getting completely dressed and getting your camera set up. It’s so easy, you couldn’t ask for a better viewing location!

We offer complimentary wake-up service and an on-site aurora guide that can help answer questions and dial in your camera for the perfect shot!

Aurora guide only available from September 15th to April 15th.

The Grizzly Lodge is One of Fairbanks' Best Aurora Viewing Spots!
