Anchorage Alaska Vacation

Alaska Question about the Northern Lights?

I am a senior lady who would love to see the Aurora Borealis in person. I know you have to go during the winter time when the sun is not out. What is the southern most area to see them? Anchorage, or even Juneau or do I have to go further north? And if I plan a weeks vacation is that enough time? Are they visible everynight or just sometimes? Thank you.

They are not always visible, and there is no sure fire schedule for them.

But here is some information from university of Alaska Fairbanks, that many people find helpful when planning a trip to see the aurora.

And although they can be seen from many places, the best viewing is often out of town (away from artificial light) so smaller towns, like Sitka, often have better viewing.

Also out of town near Fairbanks is Chena Hot Springs Resort, and many people enjoy staying there for a few night to try and see the lights.
