Kincaid Park

Kincaid Park is situated among 1,400 acres of rolling, forested hills and beautiful scenery. Visitors are treated to spectacular views of Mt. Susitna across Cook Inlet; Fire Island; Denali and Mt. Foraker to the north; and (we think) the best sunsets in Anchorage! Many species of wildlife roam free within the park; so look for black and brown bears; moose; bald eagles; and a host of smaller wildlife like snowshoe hares, the occasional river otter, and songbirds. Anchorage Parks and Recreation manages the Kincaid Outdoor Center, located at the west end of Raspberry Road in Kincaid Park. Here, the public may access restrooms and common areas for day use. Kincaid's 60 kilometers of interwoven trails, of which nearly 20 kilometers are lighted, play host to four seasons of biking, hiking, biathlon, triathlon, walking, running, and skiing activities and competitions. Additionally, access to the 11-mile Tony Knowles Coastal Trail is within easy reach of the Outdoor Center.
