Adventures by True North AK

Adventures by True North AK Adventures in South Centeral Alaska! Paddlesports By True North AK is a family-run business owned by Derek and his wife Heather.

They moved to Alaska in 2020, fell in love with the Mat-Su Valley, and are lucky enough to call this place home for our young family. We started Paddlesports By True North AK in 2022 as a way to further explore this beautiful valley and all the waterways with our children, our friends, and now you. We look forward to serving you and your family on your next Alaska Adventure!

The snow and ice are melting fast here in the Mat-Su Valley!

We’re counting down the days until we’re back paddling on our favorite rivers and lakes.

Last year, our first paddle at Finger Lake State Recreation Area was on May 13 — how early do you think we’ll be able to get out there this season?

Spring kayaking in Alaska is an unforgettable experience—just ask Guide Derek!

Why? Because nothing beats those early-season moments: the sound of melting ice, snow-capped mountains in the distance, and a stunning blue sky overhead. Simply magnificent!

The Ultimate Sauna & Cold Plunge Experience! ❄️🔥

We had an amazing time hosting a group from Houston, Texas, for a true Alaskan wellness adventure! This group from Houston embraced the heat in our wood-fired sauna before taking the ultimate plunge into icy waters. The shock? Real. The refreshment? Unmatched. The memories? Priceless!

There’s no better way to reset your body and mind than the contrast of fire and ice. Who’s ready to take the plunge with us next?

Alaska is to cool to spend much time indoors. Be sure to check out our mobile sauna.

Out snowshoeing underneath the northern lights.

Such a great way to get outside in Alaska is at night underneath the northern lights. Our guest from Los Angeles California had a great time last night chasing this natural wonder, as well as snowshoeing through an old gold mine.

Our guides really have one of the most incredible jobs on the planet!

Last night, we had the absolute joy of guiding a lovely couple on their honeymoon, all the way from Charleston, South Carolina. They chose Alaska to chase the magical Northern Lights, and let me tell you, the display was nothing short of spectacular! The sky lit up in vibrant hues, and the overall night was simply mesmerizing. It’s moments like these that make our souals swell with gratitude for the beauty of nature!
