Just 10 minutes from
downtown is one of Anchorage’s favorite playgrounds.
Chugach State Park is the third largest state park
in the nation. Folding into the foothills of East
Anchorage, the half-million acre park encompasses
some of Alaska’s most accessible hiking, skiing,
camping, wildlife viewing, snowmobiling, rafting,
and climbing areas. It’s also home to soaring
eagles, grizzly bear, moose, wolf packs and lynx.
The wildlife and rugged peaks make for a stunning
backdrop to the Anchorage landscape.
