WHERE TO GO: GOOGLE AND OTHER MAP APPS OCCASIONALLY PROVIDE THE WRONG DIRECTIONS. WE WANT TO RESPECT OUR NEIGHBORS SO PLEASE FOLLOW THESE DETAILED INSTRUCTIONS BELOW IN ORDER TO ARRIVE AT THE CORRECT LOCATION.

  • SAGA is located at 23880 Long Lake Road in Willow, Alaska, approximately 70 miles north of Anchorage.
  • The turn onto Long Lake Road is approximately mile 69 on the Parks Highway. Whether you're coming from the south or the north, there is only one option for turning onto Long Lake Road. Once on Long Lake Road, proceed approximately 1/4 mile.
  • SAGA's driveway is on the left hand side of Long Lake Road; it is the first driveway on the left after the storage center on the right.
  • Look for the 12”x12” blue sign with an image of a dog sled on it.
  • IF YOU’VE REACHED THE HEALTH CLINIC YOU HAVE GONE TOO FAR.
  • SAGA's driveway is approximately a half mile long. Keep going! It is just the beginning of your adventure!

WHEN TO ARRIVE: We want to honor the time our guests spend on the trail. Arriving too early or late for your tour time potentially short changes the experience of our other guests. We strive to provide a personalized custom tour experience; we like to keep our tour sizes small, yet we may have multiple groups participating in a tour. With this in mind, please follow the below guidelines:

  • Please plan for Fall driving conditions i.e. traffic or construction and allow for plenty of travel time to arrive on time for your tour.
  • Please arrive 15 minutes before the scheduled start time of your tour. If you arrive too early, your tour will not begin early. You are welcome to wait in our welcome cabin while we wait for all our guests to arrive.
  • Tours will not be held for guests who arrive late.
  • Refunds will not be provided for late arrivals or for no shows.

WHAT TO BRING: Don’t forget your camera, hat, neck gaiter/scarf, sunglasses, gloves and your smile! Dress in layers including insulating outer layers and boots. Worried you don’t have the right gear for the conditions? No problem. SAGA has plenty of gear to keep you comfortable on your tour including rain jackets and rain pants.

WHAT ELSE?: Our staff is scheduled based on the number of guests booked for specific tour time. If you have additional guests in your party who would like to join the tour after you made your reservations, please call us before your tour time rather than try to add them when you arrive for your tour. We will do our best to accommodate the additional guest, but there is no guarantee that space is available to add them.

See you on the trail,

AJ & Rebecca Savidis
