•  Ship Creek Viewing Platform
  
  This modest wooden platform is one of the best places along Ship Creek to view the salmon spawn, an oddly satisfying and peaceful experience made even better by the bright sun, chirping birds, and fishermen casting their lines upriver.

•  Tony Knowles Coastal Trail
  
  Visitors and locals take full advantage of this all-year trail, which runs 11 miles along the Anchorage coastline. Renting a bike is the best way to experience the trail, but don't go too fast- you might just run into moose that commonly linger along the path.
