Alaska is the largest state in the US and, at 1,480,00 sq km, is approximately six times the size of Britain. Often referred to as ‘the last frontier’, many of these epic landscapes are well connected by road and train, although some locations such as aeroplane or boat. The most popular time to visit Alaska is between May and August due to the favourable weather and accessibility around the state during this period.
