Dip in the Chena Hot Springs
Chena Hot Springs is an unincorporated town and hot spring resort in Fairbanks North Star Borough, Alaska, 56.5 miles northeast of Fairbanks, near the Chena River State Recreation Area. The resort uses Alaska's first low-temperature binary geothermal power plant and is working on numerous alternative energy projects, including the generation and usage of hydrogen and vegetable oil for fuel.
Chena Hot Springs, an hour outside of Fairbanks, draws people all year, especially after a night out admiring the northern lights. Chena Hot Springs is one of Alaska's few built and easily accessible hot springs, while there are many natural and undeveloped springs known mostly to locals.
At Chena Hot Springs, you can swim in one of two hot spring pools; the outdoor one is especially nice during the cold winter months, when condensation from the hot water causes ice crystals to develop on your hair and eyelashes. Chena Hot Springs Resort also provides various adventures on its premises, such as visits an Ice Museum, hiking or snowshoeing depending on the season, and late-night aurora-viewing excursions.
