Just an hour south of Broke‑Ass Mountain, it’s your ticket to spa robes, mountain air, and cocktails with a glacier view.What to Expect:Day 1: The Seward Highway drive is half the fun — pull over at Beluga Point for whale‑spotting, and Alaska Wildlife Conservation Center for up‑close encounters with bison, bears, and musk ox. Check into Hotel Alyeska, then head straight for the Alyeska Nordic Spa — outdoor hot pools and saunas tucked in the forest. Ride the Alyeska Aerial Tram for sunset over Turnagain Arm, then cap the evening with dinner at Seven Glaciers Restaurant, where fine dining meets mountain‑top bragging rights.Day 2: Wake up slow and head to The Bake Shop for sourdough pancakes and bottomless coffee. Take a casual walk on the Winner Creek Trail, or, if the hot pools are calling again, surrender to them. Lunch at Double Musky Inn before heading back north — it’s a rite of passage for Cajun‑style steak lovers.Local Tip: Book the tram and spa in advance; they fill faster than a glacier creek in July.Pro Tip: Bring both a swimsuit and a jacket — you’ll need one right after the other.
