At the western "nose" of the peninsula and southern terminus of the Tony Knowles Coastal Trail is this beloved 1500-acre park populated by mountain bikers in the summer and Nordic skiers in the winter. Trails wind through a rolling terrain of forested hills where there are views of Mt Susitna and Denali on a clear day and fiery sunsets in the evening.
One of the city's best for wildlife, moose sightings are extremely common, and there are bald eagles and black bears. From certain spots on the coastal trail you can stand directly under incoming jets.
Follow Raspberry Rd west to the parking lot and trailheads.
