Alaska is a wonder of beauty and there are so many places to go explore that are free! Thought we would share 7 beautiful places this state has to offer and for more grand adventures check out http://www.alaska.org/destination/anchorage/parks-and-trails
1. Spencer Glacier- Chugach National Forest about 60 miles south of Anchorage.
2. Kincaid Park- Southwest tip of Anchorage at the west end of Raspberry Road.
3. Weschester Lagoon- Downtown Anchorage.
4. Tony Knowles Coastal Trail- Kincaid Park to north of 2nd Avenue in the Cook Inlet.
5. Campbell Creek Gorge- 25 minute hike from both Hillside Ski Chalet parking area to North Bivouc Trailhead or a longer 1 hour hike from Campbell Airstrip.
6. Rendezvous Peak Trail- instead of the busy Flattop, try this less crowded option.
7. Little Campbell Lake= northeastern section of Kincaid Park.
Let us know what your favorite spots in Alaska are to explore! :)
I took the train from Wasilla to Spencer Glacier. Oh my! It is beautiful. It's so majestic and breath taking. The trail is very wide and mostly flat, anyone can hike it back to the glacier; very kid friendly. There is a very unique beautiful wood bridge they just built back there too. I can't help to think that it is a perfect photo opportunity, and of course the glacier for a background as well. Thanks for sharing those spots to try out. I live in the valley, but would be willing to discover new areas. Oh! "All Trails" is a great app to look for trails to hike and get reviews on them, and leave some too. I highly…
