Kincaid Park is situated among 1,400 acres of rolling, forested hills and beautiful scenery…a spectacular view of Mt. Susitna across Cook Inlet; Fire Island to the Southwest; both Mt. Denali and Mt. Foraker to the North; and arguably, the best sunsets in Anchorage! Many species of wildlife roam free within the park.

Looking for that unique place to have your company picnic or activity? Consider renting the Kincaid Outdoor Center and the adjacent grounds for picnics, parties, weddings, receptions, barbecues, meetings and sporting events. The Outdoor Center offers comfortable and spacious rooms inside; while outside you find expansive green lawns, a picnic pavilion, and breathtaking flower garden and picturesque lake side sites, to accommodate your special plans.

Over 25 major events have been held in the park, including: national level competitions for the selection of the U.S. Olympic Teams for X-C skiing and for Special Olympics; Alaska Ski for Women, the largest women-only ski race in the country; the National Masters X-C Skiing Championships; and the NCAA National X-C Skiing Championships. The 60km of interwoven trails, of which nearly 20km are lighted, play host to four seasons of biking, hiking, biathlon, triathlon, walking, running, and skiing activities and competitions. Access to the Coastal Trail is within yards of the Outdoor Center.
