화이트 산맥 최고의 사이클링 경로

Shows interesting facts about nature, culture and history

A bow made of antlers

This visitor center contains a lovely interpretive display about the history and culture of this region. During the summer there are a number of educational, interpretive and cultural programs available. This is a must-visit if you're new to Fairbanks.

Comprised of over 100 antlers with a skull at its centre, the Moose Antler arch is quite a sight. It represents the game hunting heritage of the region and is meant to be the gateway to Downtown Fairbanks. The antlers are maybe taken from moose and caribou.

This is a summer-only trail, and one of the older bike trails in this area. As the name suggests, it's lots of bump-eriffic fun and you might just want to ride a few loops of it with the nearby Powerline/Commuter Trail. Travel is allowed in both directions. In the winter this is designated as a ski-only trail.

At this point you're passing the University of Fairbanks Alaska Georgeson Botanical Garden to the north of the road. If you like plants, it's well worth a stop near the beginning or end of your run, although it's only open from Memorial Day to Labor Day. There is a requested donation to enter: https://georgesonbotanicalgarden.org/visit/

This starts out as a roadside run, then dives into the trees along Sheep Creek Road. If you'd like, you can use this route to connect the University of Alaska Fairbanks, or UAF, campus to the wonderful running and biking trails near Ester Dome — or just enjoy it as a fun, straightforward run in its own right.

The University of Alaska Fairbanks (UAF) Patty Center serves as the start of the Midnight Sun Run, a fun 10k that encourages runners to wear costumes and spectators to cheer their lungs out. The race is run on the Saturday closest to the summer solstice and does happen late at night, although the faster runners will be done before midnight actually arrives. The race course is run as a point-to-point, ending in Pioneer Park with a shuttle back to the starting point. But you can always run it out-and-back, or tackle just a portion of the course, if you're looking for some training.
