Anchorage Greenbelt Bike Tour

The Greenbelt Bike Tour is a guided 30-mile loop within Anchorage's hundreds of miles of paved, multi-use trails. Keep your eyes peeled for moose and other wildlife like bald eagles, salmon, and even black bears. Fittingly, this almost-complete urban greenway outlines a moose head when overlayed on a map!

The loop connects the Tony Knowles Coastal Trail, Chester Creek Trail, and Campbell Creek Trail. Take in views of the Cook Inlet, Westchester Lagoon, Goose Lake, and many of Anchorage's 200+ municipal parks.

This tour provides an opportunity to see the rugged wilderness of the 49th state, even within its largest and most populous city. By the end of this 4-hour journey, you will truly understand why locals love Anchorage and Alaska.
