Exploring Alaska? Whether you hike, camp, fish, photograph, or take a scenic drive, your first step should be through the doors of the
ALASKA PUBLIC LANDS INFORMATION CENTERS! Alaska's parks, forests, wildlife refuges and other types of public land account for more than 300 million acres -- an area more than twice the size of Texas.
Congress established the APLICs to represent both Federal and State land managing agencies. Now, you won't have to visit many different office locations to find out about the lands and waters these agencies manage and the services they provide. In one stop, you can obtain most of the information needed to plan your Alaska adventure.
Learn about Alaska's vast public lands. Visit an APLIC in Tok, Anchorage, Fairbanks, or Ketchikan.

- Alaska Department of Fish and Game
