Sightseeing
The coastal trail is just as it sounds. A 7 mile trail along the Anchorage Coastline. Tons of places to stop on your walk to take pictures, have a picnic, or go for a ski or bike ride to cruise the coastline. This trail is always busy as most Alaskans are pretty active either running, walking, biking, or practicing for cross country skiing.
