Its has some really nice views. A little effort and during the summer you could enjoy a nice lunch with a view up here.

Only 4 star because it wasnt a loop. And not very maintained. Awesome through hike with great views

Great hike with several great overlook spots for the bay. The wildfire made the views a little difficult but still work the hike. Trail is very easy to follow and clearly marked and maintained

My favorite day hike on the Seward Hwy, way better than Bird Ridge in my opinion. But if you are not an experienced hiker I recommend you stay away from this trail. The scree field at the top can be dangerous if youve never experienced it before.

Waterfalls and spectacular views on a fairly simple and non strenuous trail...only downside is its near the highway and can hear the cars from the trail almost the entire time

Hidden gem of a trail. Not heavily trafficked, beautiful views, a creek, and blueberry picking galore! It has some steep sections and has some loose gravel in places so good hiking shoes are recommended.

Nice short hike for the whole family. Very pretty and gets you out of the heat with all of the heavy foliage.

Free parking and a few different routes to take. Toward McHugh Creek is a bit more open and you can climb the peak this way. Toward Alyeska is a bit more dense trees/vegetation at first.
