"Our mission is clear. Front Sight Resort Alaska is your host, educator, and guide for world-class outdoor adventures and personal safety training."

Our Founders Message says it all.

Front Sight Alaska is located on approximately 320 acres in the northern portion of Alaska's Kenai Peninsula. We are about 20 minutes drive from the airport in Kenai, Alaska.

About 30 minutes by air or three hours by car. The distance is about 160 miles. Remember, the state of Alaska is huge and the travel distances may be greater than you are used to in the lower 48. The good news is the scenery is terrific and you will have ample daylight.

Not at this time. Those are services we will likely add in the future.

Kenai is about a 20-minute drive and Soldotna is another 10 minutes. Kenai is the 6th largest city in Alaska and offers ample lodging, dining, car rental, and retail opportunities.

The experiences you and your family will have at Front Sight Alaska cannot be found anywhere else. This is the reason our students travel from across the United States and around the world to receive what they fondly refer to as the "Front Sight Experience". A trip to Front Sight Alaska is definitely worth the time and money because the safety and happiness of you and your family is priceless.

Front Sight offers a membership program so you can reach your training goals faster and cheaper. Please see our Membership link.

Front Sight Alaska is designed for the entire family. Sure, you could come alone but exploring the last frontier with your entire family is even better.

Front Sight enjoys a minimum of 40% growth each year due to the huge positive response of our students and members and the exploding demand for our training and recreational services. We look forward to continued future expansion and offering more facilities around the country, more courses, more course dates, and most importantly, many more satisfied Front Sight students.

That depends on what you want to do. Check some of the information on Interesting Links to determine the ideal time for your vacation. Regardless when you come to Front Sight Alaska, there are more activities than you will be able to absorb in this lifetime.
