Borealis Basecamp

Aurora Viewing in a very unique setting just outside of Fairbanks!

Just North of Fairbanks, Borealis Basecamp offers an experience unlike any other. Here on 100 acres of pristine boreal forest, you will be immersed within the Alaskan wilderness. At night, outside and inside blend together in transparent swirls of light and dark. View the dancing lights of the aurora borealis from a modern geodesic igloo, explore the rugged landscape, and understand the allure of the far north.
