The Tour of Anchorage is a cross-country ski marathon that takes place every March, linking together a series of trails across the city. Those trails aren't just for skiing, though. They're designated for multi-use all year round, and are a core part of recreation throughout Anchorage.

This stretch of trail is wide, well-packed dirt — translation, you have good footing and won't get crowded by brush — and sports only rolling hills, making it a great place to stretch your legs for a run.

Mountain biking

You won't find any big terrain features here. Instead, this is a broad multi-use trail that connects the trail system around Service High School with the Campbell Tract trails, and further beyond into Anchorage. It's also part of the route known as the "Tour of Anchorage." Technically the Tour is an annual ski marathon, but its route is very popular for year-round recreation, and if you don't mind pedaling on snow there is even a fat-tire bike section in the race.
