Local Hikes We Love
Sightseeing
Some great hikes begin at this trail head including one of the most popular Anchorage hikes FlatTop (and it’s only about 20 minutes away!).
Flat top is a moderate trail but can be done in 2-3 hours and has fantastic views of anchorage.
The power line pass trail also begins here and is pretty much flat but with great views of the valley.

Easy Hikes
This is a beautiful hike tucked away in the Girdwood valley, it is flat and only a few miles out and back. A great walk/hike with the family!

A friend we had visit once described this hike as “Alaska views without the Alaska work” which says it all! Only about 40mins away and just a still through a valley on flat, maintained trails.
