Fairbanks: Late Night Yurt Dinner and Northern Lights

Experience the beauty and wild side of Alaska.

Spend a night away from Fairbanks and savor a home-cooked cabin dinner before feasting your eyes on the infamous Northern Lights.

The aurora borealis is one of the planet's most breathtaking phenomena. In Alaska, a land that stays dark for most of the winter, these spectacular lights bring the sky to life with other-worldly colors that shimmer and dance across the sky.

Your yurt is only a short drive from Fairbanks, but far enough to avoid the obstructive glare of city lights.

Stay warm with a late dinner (salmon) and lively conversation in the comfort of your cabin while waiting for the aurora.

The huge north-facing windows of the cabin offer the perfect viewing opportunity. However, should you decide to go outside for photographs or a full view of the sky, wear layers to keep warm.
