Wilderness Landscape & Natural Heritage
Campbell Creek Greenway is a linear parkway running through Anchorage, Alaska, providing a vital recreational outlet in the city's southern region. The greenway follows the meandering course of Campbell Creek, featuring riparian forest and wetland ecosystems home to diverse wildlife, including salmon, beavers, and moose.

Today, it serves as a recreational hub for hiking, biking, and fishing, reflecting Anchorage's commitment to preserving open spaces and enhancing urban livability. With a network of trails crisscrossed by pedestrian bridges, visitors can enjoy scenic views and peaceful moments while staying in proximity to urban amenities. The greenway's year-round accessibility — with lush summers and snow-covered winters — ensures a range of recreational opportunities, from cycling and walking to cross-country skiing. Its blending of natural beauty and urban convenience makes Campbell Creek Greenway a treasured destination for locals and visitors alike.
