Alaska Botanical Garden - Anchorage AK

06.13.26 Five stars even with mighty hungry mosquitoes! I went in late in the afternoon so mosquitoes were out already 🫣 It's a beautiful time of the year to walk around the gardens - plenty of flowers to feast your eyes on. I was hoping to buy plants which are supposed to be discounted but I did not find what I wanted. It's about a mile of leisurely walk in the gardens. Pictures don't do these flowers the accolades they deserve but I'm sharing them anyway. This is a well kept garden for sure. Plenty of parking and there are benches within the gardens.

Beautiful garden that has great scenery and tons to do and learn. Christmas is the time to go!! Visit when they have the lights set up. It’s a walking tour so wheelchairs and strollers can be a little tough to get around in with ice and snow. There is a building with a bathroom.

I came here by myself and spent 3.5 hours I could have spent all days here taking photos of and admiring all the beautiful flowers. There are trails where you can go further into the woods. The Botanical Garden has a little teal locker room at the admission desk with colored pencils, sharpener and white sketch pad that you can borrow to draw your favorite flowers! I wish I could have showed up earlier to have enough time to see it all. Amazing place.

My dad and I spent a quiet afternoon exploring the gardens. The variety of flowers in bloom in early August was lovely. Can visit the entire garden and 1- mile walking loop within 1-2 hrs.

Went for the Christmas lights and had a wonderful romantic time. Ordered our tickets a week before and had no trouble getting in
