Stunning Views of Creeks & Valleys
The White Mountains Recreation Area has over 200 miles of trails. The area offers stunning scenery, peaceful solitude, and outstanding opportunities for those with a taste for adventure. If you are looking for a hike into the wilderness with breathtaking scenery, this is the adventure for you.
Easily one of the most scenic drives in the Interior, the trip out to Table Top Mountain from Fairbanks winds deep into the center of White Mountains National Recreation Area, rising up hillsides and dipping down into valleys for a rolling picture show of spruce forest and snaking riverbeds.
The hike to Table Top Mountain is just as spectacular, providing panoramic views of the White Mountains from the center of the range, and is a short “must do” jaunt if you’re spending any time in the area. The trail requires a steady climb of about a thousand feet and there are multiple scenic viewpoints and photo opportunities along the way. At the top, you can explore two summits for wide, expansive views of the White Mountains and the Alaska Range on a clear day.
In late summer and early fall, you will be treated to a colorful arctic landscape. Along the trail, you will be surrounded by many different plants and wildflowers. You may even be able to pick blueberries, cranberries, or crow berries. Not only will you enjoy the bountiful flora, you may also find yourself in the presence of some of Alaska’s fauna. Wildlife sightings can include moose, snowshoe hare, owls,hawks, or even a bald eagle.
There will be ample time for taking photos and exploring along the way.
