Tony Knowles Coastal Trail

This 11-mile paved pathway winds along Anchorage's waterfront, offering stunning views of Cook Inlet and the Chugach Mountains while connecting downtown to south Anchorage through accessible green space. The trail is equally beloved by joggers, cyclists, and casual strollers who pause to watch beluga whales, sea otters, and migratory birds in their natural habitat. Named after a popular local radio personality, it's become Anchorage's most iconic outdoor recreation corridor, transforming the city's relationship with its spectacular coastal setting.
