Good place to go with my kids for a hike/walk and they love meeting all dogs out with their owners along the way.
Bike and hiking trails. Bring BEAR Mace due to brown BEAR in the area. Great place to walk your best Friend and bags(usually) at entrance. Lots of parking but weekends the parking lot get full fast
Great hiking trail. Wide, taken care of and has minimal incline making it an easy trail to traverse.
This park has plenty of parking and offers a natural surrounding for the city. There are paved paths for walkers and numerous offroad bicycle trails. However, I found the numerous bike trails to be confusing. A few years back there were a few bear maulings (rovers run) due to the proximity to the salmon streams. I would avoid it during salmon seasons into the fall.
Miles of great multi-use trails! Huge area; just beware of bears during the summer as there are many large creeks which run through the area.
Nice pleace to for small lake fishing, hiking, sunset watching, night sky watching, wildlife watching, dog practice, and running around the lake, or running
We have had the privilege to watch our daughter play baseball here for the last four years. Starting with t-ball. We love the baseball fields. They are always clean, very well kept grass, base lines, bases, bleachers, everything. There is a great group of people behind the scenes making sure this place continues to grow and succeed. I love the feeling of safety it brings over me. There is one way in and everyone knows everyone. It’s easy to let your kid be a kid here, and I appreciate that more than anything.
One of my favorite places to just get off the beaten trail and pretend like im in the real bush. Its bit littered for my liking, and I know there is at least one questionable hobo, who you can hear the angry screams of if you listen closely enough, but hey, its still a city after all, none the less I love this place and head out for it every free day I have.
Love to explore parks this one is new to me
Its well maintained next people its a good place to go camp
I see moose and fox here all the time. So far no bears but thats a good thing. I did cross country skiing and I run here in the winter often. Nice place to run 3 to 5 miles.
Trailed are well maintained and signage for possible dangers are always posted.
Great place for small lake fishing,hiking,watching the sunset, night sky viewing,wildlife viewing, exercising the dogs,and humans, with a walk,jog,or run around the lake. Always be prepared, and stay cautious& alert though. Bears&Moose are seen daily in the summer& Moose in the winter.They all can be quiet and sneaky, so leash your pets, keep kids close& pay attention to your surroundings&enjoy!
Good place to walk my husky
Has some of the best trails for bikeing Ive been on here in Anchorage
I love going here! It is Peaceful!
Love the trails here... Theres trails for many different levels of activity/skill... From wide flat trails, small hills & large steep hills, to obstacles like bumpy tree roots
Great year-round groomed trails that feel theyre in a remote wilderness. Excellent layout and design.Very large, yet manageable trail system. Can run there for many, many miles, not see the same thing, and still have easy navigation.There are several off-shoots from the main trail for more adventure once you learn the main trails.Been riding, skiing, walking, running this trail system for 10+ years and it never gets old.Only complaints are unavoidable in nature. Potential bear and moose risks.Ive seen the parking lot packed several times, but theres always plenty of space on the trails. They rarely seem to be busy.Perfect for any skill level. Mostly all flat and the hills are there, but avoidable if you so choose.
Great walking trails, pond has frogs and lots of birds. Occasionally moose
Many great trails to explore
Easy access from north or east Anchorage.
Beautiful place to hike
Sweet trail system in winter. Bears are asleep. Peaceful place to walk with dogs . Watch out for areas with overflow, thin ice.
What a fantastic park inside anchorage.. its multipurpose use as a ball field and trail park is super nice, and the trails are lovely and numerous. one can get really deep into the forest if they select the right trails...
Beautiful place for a bike ride.
Along the Tour of Anchorage Trail.According to genetic hair studies there is a population of about 15 Brown Bears living in the Campbell Track. Not everyone agrees that the bears are inactive all winter, but I have never seen one.This picture was taken near the trail head bridge just off Campbell Airstrip Road.
Always love these trails! Usually not a lot of people, everyone that I have run in to has been friendly.
There are a lot of different trails to take in this park. Some of them are quite icy and steep. Its spring; the bears will be coming out of hibernation soon and they will be hungry. We ran into some moose on the path, so we had to forget walking the loop and backtrack the way we came in to get back to the parking area.
Not sure why google says Bicentennial Park, maybe they are all connected by the trail system. I spent a lovely time at Abbott Loop Community Park off of Elmore with some friends. We ate bbq, and played games on the lawn. The space is huge so even though we took up a lot of it playing badminton, bocce, and softball, as well as the kids running around with soccer balls and such, there was still room for other visitors to play with their kids and dogs. Really a great place to spend the day or start off on a hike. The parking lot is huge and they have restrooms
Pretty easy hike with the kids!
So much fun especially with the new trails. It is now by far the best enduro type mountain biking in the Anchorage area. There are trails for everyone here. Easy flow trails and techy black diamonds and jump trails.
Awesome trail system! Connects to Hillside, Prospect Heights, and Flattop too! Could go all the way to Indian if you wanted to!
If love taking walks but beware of bears
For locals and visitors alike, this is Alaska nature in the heart of the urban city. Get out to explore the trails by foot, by bike, or by ski — travel through birch forests, pass salmon streams, and (carefully) see wildlife.
I dont know what I was doing hrr
You can feel Russian spirit here.The amplitude of temperature is huge so you will not recognize the place in another time of the year.The also smth like little river. A loooooooot of firs, they are so magnificent.
Driving through here we saw a bald eagle just hanging out on top of the Power line pole!
Beautiful, well kept trails and many markers to help you along the way
Always beautiful, big enough to not be crowded. Great place to hike, bike, walk a dog.
Beautiful park to go on a walk or easy to a hard hike. It is not as crowded as other parks in Anchorage. There is enough elevation on some trails to see a beautiful view over the city. It is easy to access and all trails are well marked and taken care for. Parking is free and also not busy. Highly recommend it if you want to be in the city limits but feel like you are not.
There is an off-leash dog area on the western edge of the park. Nice scenery.
Biking, hiking, exploring, playing, wildlife, yes! This is an amazingly fun park to enjoy the outdoors in the Anchorage bowl. Largely overlooked for the more popular Kincaid Park, its a shining gem hiding nooks and crannies. I can bike on trails all day and never see a person. I love it
One of the best spots in in Anchorage to nature walk. My favorite park in Anchorage proper.
Another place to show visitors our best state
The new and old singletrack trails are great, the climbs can be a bit for the heavy riders (like myself), but the reward is a nice long downhill run with technical and flowy sections.
Great almost virgin land. Chances to see wildlife close to town.
Really nice park to have a stroll or ride your bike through.
Cleary marked trails, park was clean, great views.
Alaska parks rock! the city doesnt even have to try to make good parks. Look everybody heres a dirt trail for the woods knock yourself out.
Well maintained trails. Thank you Parks and Rec!
Great place to go hiking and taking a day trip in the mountains maybe see a beautiful glacier
One of the most beautiful and easily accessible places in Anchorage.
Fun. Beautiful. Very nice for big family.
Always love it here.
Fantastic views in both summer and winter. A place in the middle of the city that can provide true peace and clarity
I love it heere it is the wilderness right here in Anchorage. Moose, bear, bobcats, salmon, owls, eagles, coyotes, lynx, trails for miles all right here.
Incredible and easy walking trails
A wilderness jewel in the middle of the city.
Its an awesome place to take your family.
Great place to experience nature with the dogs or just yourself. My pups love when we come out for walks/runs. Many trails to choose from; whether its walking, running, or biking you wont be left hanging.
Be prepared for mud most of the year the further you get from the parking lot and bridge. Always a nice walk through the woods, though. One of my favorite places to come when its snowing just to watch it falling on the trees.
When nice weather its a great park
Some of the best x country skiing anywhere... Trails are lit up until 9 or 10 pm. Also, has some great singletrack for biking. Watch out for wildlife... Steer clear of Bears on Rovers run during the Salmon run.
Great mountain biking, remote feel, beautiful views.
Great park to get out and walk the pup.
Its a little bit of bear country right in the city
A wonderful place to hike, bike and cross-ski in any season. I go there often.
Beautiful area what a park should look like
It was an enjoyable day for a bike ride
Wilderness and lighted groomed ski trails yet right in town. Warm and cozy on a very cold night. Snacks and hot drinks along with restrooms. Quite an oasis.
Nice place to park meet up with freinds family and relax but didnt have no kids but freind met his freinds there
Hub of trails in all shapes and sizes - ski trails, dog walking, hiking, mountain biking. From mellow gravel to steep and rooty single track, this park tons of options
I did not know of the winter trails until this year. It is beautiful on sunny days if youre walking, biking, skiing, mushing, or snowmaching enjoy the scenery.
I just love the view of the mountains. & Enjoy ️
So beautiful and well maintained. The air is so clean. This is our fav place to go for nice hike without too much worry about bears.
Lalos pizza is awesome
One of my favorite places to go to get away from the city and unwind from the day. Best place for off-road biking with many different challenging trails to choose from
This my most favorite trails to run on
Granson plays Baseball here.ajioning park is well kept,open to see area around and has a wonderful area for games picnics and just relaxing.
Lots of trailheads. You could have a different experience every time you go. Stay aware of your surroundings because there are plenty of wildlife and people on the trail. It can also become very icy in places in the winter.
In the winter this park is absolutely magical at night when the moon is approaching its climax. Highly recommend renting fat tire bike and riding the trails without head light to maximize your experience with the moon lit landscape.
I do a lot of photography, and this area is one of my main go tos fir shooting
I love staying at the Anchorage Gospel Rescue Mission
