• Campbell Creek Greenbelt - As the southernmost trail in Anchorage, the 7.5-mile Campbell Creek Trail links the extensive trail networks of Far North Bicentennial Park to Campbell Lake in the southwest part of the city.

The trail meanders through lush greenbelts, expansive neighborhoods, and bustling commercial zones, tracing the Campbell Creek watershed as it flows towards Cook Inlet. Keep an eye out for salmon in the creek, as well as moose and other wildlife along the route.

• Chester Creek Greenbelt - The Lanie Fleischer Chester Creek Trail carves a scenic, tree-lined path across Anchorage, connecting Westchester Lagoon and the Tony Knowles Coastal Trail in the west with the University of Alaska Anchorage campus in the east.

The name “Chester Creek” is an anglicized version of the Dena’ina Athabascan name “Chanshtnu,” which means “Grass Creek.” Before Anchorage was established, Knik Arm Dena’ina camped along Chester Creek to fish for salmon during spring and summer, with many having cabins and homes along lower Chester Creek until the land was appropriated, surveyed, and sold prior to Anchorage becoming a city.

Today, the Chester Creek Trail is a favored city walking path, bike route, and winter ski trail, weaving through greenbelts and Anchorage neighborhoods, connecting various pocket parks, skating rinks, and other recreational facilities. It spans 4 miles from end to end, and its flat, paved surface makes it ideal for walking or cycling.

• Westchester Lagoon - Visit Westchester Lagoon, a sanctuary for waterfowl and a fantastic spot for photography!
• Earthquake Park - Earthquake Park offers visitors a glimpse into a significant moment in Alaska’s history: the 1964 Earthquake. The quake on March 27 – Good Friday – registered a magnitude of 9.2 and was the largest earthquake ever recorded in North America.

A steep drop-off north of the park and the unusual rippling hills in the forest below are remnants of the massive earthquake that permanently changed Anchorage’s landscape.

• Kincaid Park - Extending into Cook Inlet on Anchorage’s western tip, Kincaid Park is one of the city’s largest parks. It’s an excellent location for wildlife viewing, including moose and black bears! From the park’s summit, enjoy sweeping views of Cook Inlet, Denali, Fire Island, and the Aleutian Mountains.

The 1,500-acre park was once a Cold War military site. Guides will point out concrete bunkers that once housed Nike Hercules Missiles.

In Kincaid Park, visitors can use indoor restrooms, refill water, and take a longer break to enjoy a snack.

• Point Woronzof - Anchorage was once known as the “Air Crossroads of the World” for a reason — Alaska’s largest city is central to air traffic. Alaska boasts more pilots and airplanes per capita than anywhere else in the U.S., and Anchorage hosts one of the busiest air cargo hubs globally. Stop at Point Woronzof to witness these enormous cargo jets landing or taking off right overhead!
• Tony Knowles Coastal Trail - The Tony Knowles Coastal Trail traces the shore of Cook Inlet from Downtown Anchorage to Kincaid Park. It winds through coastal marshes, over forested hills, and past one of Anchorage’s most dramatically transformed landscapes. The paved trail stretches 11 miles along the coast, offering stunning views of Sleeping Lady or Mount Susitna. On clear days, Denali and nearby Mount Foraker are visible on the horizon.

Anchorage boasts one of the finest urban trail networks in the United States, featuring hundreds of miles of paved and multi-use trails that connect the city. The three primary multi-use trails—Chester Creek Trail, Tony Knowles Coastal Trail, and Campbell Creek Trail—can be linked to create a 30-mile bike loop. This nearly complete urban greenway, when viewed on a map, resembles the shape of a moose!

Explore off the beaten path and enjoy a day like a local with a local! This urban greenbelt offers numerous chances to observe wildlife such as moose, black bears, bald eagles, and occasionally even a beluga whale! For biking enthusiasts, there’s no better way to experience Anchorage than by joining the ride on the “Moose Loop,” which outlines a moose head on a map.
