Fatbiking
Call us!
Join us and experience floating quietly through the Alaskan boreal forest! Winter biking on Alaska snowmachine and dog mushing trails is the ticket. Fairbanks has some of the world’s best winter trails. Fat biking past snow-covered black spruce trees in a magical winter landscape is an activity that is accessible to most people. Our expert local Fairbanks guides know these trails like the back of their hand.
We have three packages to choose from, each providing unique experiences. All packages include fat bikes, private guides, and complementary professional photographs (see description below).
What are fat bikes? Fat bikes are mountain bikes with 4-5” wide huge tires that enable you to bike with low air pressure, which creates floatation on snow and a very stable safe way to explore winter trails. Fat bikes are usually equipped with handlebar mittens, so-called pogies, to keep your hands warm and cozy.
