Once used by ancient native hunters, Russian explorers, and early 20th century gold seekers as a mail and supply route from the coastal towns of
Seward and
Knik to the interior mining camps, the National Historic Iditarod Trail takes its name from the Athabascan Indian village near the site of a 1908 gold discovery.
The Iditarod trail is actually a network of more than 2,300 miles of trails.
