Chugach State Park

Photo

Chugach State Park is the third largest state park in the nation, and it folds into the foothills of East Anchorage.

Although the park's campgrounds, picnic areas, trails and the Eagle River Visitor Center receive nearly one million visits each year, those seeking wilderness solitude will not be disappointed.

Soaring eagles, moose, grizzly bears, wolf packs and lynx name just a few types of wildlife that habitat the park. High alpine wildflowers, rugged mountain peaks, roaring glacier-fed rivers, clearwater streams, a mature spruce forest and more than 50 glaciers hardly describe the spectacular sights that await. Mountaineering challenges, front country trails, and backcountry bushwhacking offer something for all types of wilderness explorers. Three campgrounds, public use cabins and wide-open spaces provide the ultimate in camping experiences. Download the Chugach State Park Trail Map (210k PDF)
