Synopsis

Tired of the same old tourist traps? Take the road less traveled and discover the hidden attractions, unique finds, and unusual locales other guidebooks just don't offer. Off the Beaten Path® features the things you'd want to see―if only you knew about them! From the best in local dining to quirky cultural tidbits, you'll say over and over again: “I didn't know that!”


Looking to discover a side of Alaska you never knew existed? Take a flight-seeing tour over glaciers and high-country lakes. Venture to the Kodiak Wildlife Refuge––accessible only by seaplane or boat. Embark on a kayaking expedition through Alaska's remote waters. Take a cooking class and learn to prepare Alaskan-seafood specialties. If you've “been there, done that” one too many times, get off the main road and venture Off the Beaten Path®.

A propos du livre

À propos de l?auteur

Lisa Maloney is a freelance writer and editor. Her parents dragged her to Alaska at a young age, (figuratively) kicking and screaming because she didn't know what an "Alaska" was and was sure she wouldn't like it. In a way, that early sentiment was correct: She didn't like Alaska. She loved it, and is still there more than 35 years later. Lisa got her start in 2005 as an outdoors columnist and reporter with local newspapers. She went on to serve as senior editor for Alaska Magazine, pen Moon Alaska, Day Hiking Southcentral Alaska, and 50 Hikes Around Anchorage, and write for National Geographic, Condé Nast Traveler, the New Zealand Herald, Fodor's Travel, Frommer's, and many more. When Lisa's not busy writing you'll probably find her reading, hiking, kayaking, dancing, or playing traditional Irish music—one of many passions that tend to lure her off the beaten path—on the button accordion and fiddle.
