Most popular hiking trail in town. Short .75-1.5 hour hike depending on ability. Great views from the top of the city and inlet.
Try one of the other trails from the parking lot for a more rugged hike into the rest of the Chugach mountains. Or if you simply want a easy view, there is a short overlook trail right next to the parking lot. No hiking required.

Vervoersmogelijkheden
Anchorage is a sprawling city. A car would be best, but plenty to do in the downtown area walking.
Don't stick to only Anchorage! Day trips to the Matsu Valley, Hatcher's Pass, Girdwood, Portage, and Seward are our personal favorites.
