Creamer's Field Migratory Waterfowl Refuge

A handful of trails, each less than 2 miles round-trip, wind through the farmlands and forests of Creamer's Field Migratory Waterfowl Refuge, an old dairy farm that's become a birders' paradise. The Alaska Department of Fish and Game seeds the area with bird-luring plants, attracting more than 100 species annually, including Sandhill cranes. The Farmhouse Visitor Center, adjacent to the Fish and Game office and reached by the MACS Red Line, has trail guides, bug spray and a list of recent sightings.

Volunteers lead one-hour nature walks at 19:00 Monday through Friday and 09:00 Wednesday.
