You can safely assume that Skwentna is an alpha-place for adventure sports during the winters and visitors can help themselves to snowmobile and cross-country skiing, at the very least. As such, it would be best to arrive here in February to experience a 350-mile race called Iditarod Trail Invitational that combines skiing, mountain biking and snowshoeing adventures. Over the next few weeks, you can also attend the Iron Dog Snowmobile Race and the historic Iditarod Trail Sled Dog Race here.
