The sport of canoeing is something that requires both physical stamina and mental agility. You can practice sharpening both skills required for this fun sport when you take to the water at Wooden Canoe Lake. The water is always inviting and proves to be the perfect place for beginners to get acquainted with the sport or for more seasoned paddlers to practice and maintain their level of performance.

The season of winter isn't restricted to the months of the year, as visitors are always in for a cool experience when they visit the Fairbanks Ice Museum.
