  • So nice!
    By A Yahoo! Contributor, 09/22/07
    It was beautiful even on a cloudy day! The trails are easily manageable, even for someone with no hiking experience (me!). It gets a little rougher the higher you go, but it's easy as long as you have on some good shoes with lots of traction. Oh and it helps if you have amazing thigh strength. I can't wait to do it again on a clearer day!

  • Amazing hike
    By J S, 08/11/07
    The hike starts at the Glen Alps trailhead, which has a very easy loop trail with a great lookout and view of the Anchorage area. If all you want is a gorgeous view of the area, that's the way to go. Very easy, short and flat.

    The actual hike to Flattop starts at the parking lot area, and is well maintained in the summer. Our five year old ...

  • Great Hike
    By Michael, 01/20/07
    Have done this trail 2 times and both times offered exceptional views of Anchorage. Trail is fairly easy for experts and beginners alike, first time I went there was still snow in June and it made for a beautiful hike and walk

  • Good Views
    By Conan, 08/25/06
    Any easy well maintained trail leads to great views. Easy for kids and lots to see. Alittle hard to get to, but well worth the drive.

  • Great panonoramic view of Anchorage
    By JimA, 08/10/05
    Great panonoramic view of Anchorage. Spotted Moose down the valley. Even if you are not a hiker, an excellent place to visit if you have an extra hour or two to spare while in Anchorage. Only a 15 minute drive from Anchorage airport.

  • Worth risking your life for
    By A Yahoo! Contributor, 06/20/05
    This was not an easy hike. Sure, for most of the hike it was a stairmaster user's dream, but the last part was hard, scary, and possibly life threatening. Was it worth it? Absolutely. The view from the hike and then the top was breathtaking. I felt like I was on top of the world. I did hope that a helicopter would come and take me down, but it ...
