Family Fun in Wasilla AK
If you’re considering purchasing one of the new construction homes in Wasilla AK, look no further than Hall Quality Homes’ three outstanding communities that offer tranquility and natural beauty. Ideally located with a range of lot sizes to meet your preferences and surrounded by majestic trees, you’re still close to daily needs and plenty of fun activities to enjoy with the whole family.
The Wasilla Museum is a great outing for all ages. You’ll learn plenty about the fascinating gold mining history of the town. Along with rotating exhibits throughout the year – so return visits are worth your while – visitors also take in the Old Wasilla Townsite, where you can explore the old schoolhouse, houses and more, and imagine yourself on a trip back in time.
Another fascinating museum is the Museum of Alaska Transportation and Industry. Bush pilots have played an important role in Alaska’s aviation history and you’ll find wonderful relics related to them. There’s also an engrossing collection of airplanes, Alaska Railroad cars, and vintage automobiles.
Lake fishing is a popular outdoor activity for the family, thanks to Wasilla’s location between Lake Lucille and Wasilla Lake. In fact, the Mat-Su Borough is known as the “Stillwater Fishing Capital of Alaska”. Both of the lakes are excellent for lake fishing, and there are also a number of stocked lakes just outside of town, such as Matanuska Lake, Memory Lake, and Finger Lake, where you can head out for some fine fishing.
Another enjoyable outing is a trip to the Iditarod Trail Sled Dog Race headquarters. There’s a free 30-minute video about this famous 1,000-mile race to get you started, and you’ll find plenty of trophies and other artifacts from past winners, and there’s even a checkpoint replica. During the summer, visitors can enjoy cart rides from Raymie Redington, the son of the race’s founder, Joe Redington Sr. Finish off your visit with a trip to the gift shop where you’ll find all sorts of fun keepsakes.
Finally, just outside of downtown Wasilla, you can visit Hatcher Pass for hiking, mountain biking and year-round multi-use trails, not to mention berry picking and recreational gold panning. It’s a major hot spot for outdoor winter activities, but there’s plenty to enjoy all year long, including the stunning scenery, such as the views of the lower Matanuska Valley. This is one of the most beautiful areas in Alaska, which makes it a destination in its own right, further enhanced by the variety of family friendly outdoor activities to enjoy.
These are just a few of the many reasons people love to call Wasilla home.
