Bike trail in Anchorage

Inbound Coastal Trail rider near Earthquake Park.


 

Anchorage airport is world's 3rd busiest for air cargo.  Five miles out on the Coastal Trail watch a parade of aircraft (frequently 747s) take off and land.

TEST AND VERIFY.

We will have many bikes for you to choose from when you get here. Selecting a bike is a collaboration. We ask questions to narrow the choices then suggest a bike which you test and verify that it is safe and sound and suitable for your needs.

 Next we provide a map and direction sheet and explain where to go (usually coastal trail), how to get there and what to expect.

No guide is needed to bike the coastal trail.  Keep the ocean on your right on the way out, and on your left on the way back.

Some people decide to bike back on the Alternate Return Route. If you choose it, dovetail the detailed direction sheet with a highlighted map.

FAQ 1 - 3 explains why summer reservations are not needed for short term rentals and cost saving options if you'll be in Alaska for more than one week.
