The coastal trail is just as it sounds. A 7 mile trail along the Anchorage Coastline. Tons of places to stop and take pictures or take the bikes provided by us and go cruise the coastline. This trail is always busy as most Alaskans are pretty active either running, walking, biking, or practicing for cross country skiing.
