A great resource for Fairbanks and those who visit!
Many beautiful vistas and interesting things to see with: easy access (buses can turn around at the barn), ample parking, there are handicapped parking spots, curb cuts, and and solid surfaces from which to view the migratory waterfowl, clean handicapped accessible bathrooms (open seasonally), there are a few picnic tables and sheltered spots to sit, and there are relatively flat walking/rolling areas. The back parking can be a little iffy during breakup, but the rest is usually fine.
It is absolutely dog-friendly! People skijor, run their dog sled teams, and cross country ski with dogs in the winter, and take their dogs for exercise in the warmer months. Please keep your dog restrained and be mindful of the fact that there is a decent chance of encountering wildlife including Moose.
During the warmer months you will feed mosquitoes whether you want to or not, so being prepared with bug spray or netting is a good idea.
And lastly, though there is light pollution this is still an accessible spot to get some good Aurora viewing in, and it is on the bus line!
I hope you enjoy it as...

Read moreCreamers Fields in the perfect place to go for a nice and easy day hike with the family. They have a wide variety of trails that are mostly stroller accessible for those with little ones, and some that are slightly more challenging. The boardwalk trail is amazingly beautiful, but has some areas that are difficult to traverse as the boardwalk is broken in some places and requires you to jump to the next section. Lots of fun though and doable with small kids. If you have not been to this gem of a place yet, you are missing out! Very easy to social distance despite the amount of people who visit. This place is also incredible for bird watching, and has a lot of local history with the old barn and farm house! Go check out Creamers...
