We are located in the small village of Wiseman, situated in Northern Alaska, approximately 60 miles north of the Arctic Circle. Flanked by the Brooks mountain range, and near the Gates of the Arctic National Park and Arctic National Wildlife Refuge.

You can reach Wiseman via the Dalton Highway, which connects Fairbanks to Deadhorse and the Arctic Ocean. The road is a well maintained, gravel road (partly paved) and usually in fair condition.

Weather and road construction can effect travel times but count on a minimum of six hours to drive from Fairbanks to Wiseman.

The Wiseman spur road is located 14 miles north of Coldfoot, about halfway between Fairbanks and Deadhorse. A small sign will direct you to turn left, for a three mile drive to Wiseman. Continue along the main road through the community until you see our sign (Arctic Getaway)

If you are not already planning to continue north of Wiseman, we recommend driving an additional 100 miles through the Brooks range, over Atigun pass, (the highest road pass in Alaska, 4,800 ft.) and out on to the open tundra of the Arctic North Slope and coastal plains.

The spectacular scenery will reward the extra effort. You may see moose, wolves, grizzly bear, dall sheep, musk oxen, birds and other wildlife along the way.

As an alternative to driving to Wiseman, scheduled flights exist from various Fairbanks and Deadhorse based flight service companies.
