Kincaid Park is situated among 1,400 acres of rolling, forested hills and beautiful scenery. Visitors are treated to spectacular views of Mt. Susitna across Cook Inlet; Fire Island; Denali and Mt. Foraker to the north; and the best sunsets in Anchorage! Many species of wildlife roam free within the park; so look for black and brown bears; moose; bald eagles; and a host of smaller wildlife like snowshoe hares, the occasional river otter, and songbirds.

I don’t know how this state park got anything less than 5 stars but it is definitely worth your time. Accessibility can be the only thing I can think of. The state park is huge and a big portion of it isn’t accessible. The parts that are, are absolutely stunning. Multiple hiking trails, camping areas, picnics, photo opportunities, and scenic views throughout. If you like the outdoors and stunning scenery, this park has what you’re looking for. You can do almost anything here as there are ample hunting and fishing locations. This is a photographers dream! The nature center in Eagle River tops it off as the best state park I e ever been in. I visit here as often as I can.

Took time to visit on a warm sunny day. My dog and I went up the main trail for about 20 minutes. Now that I am older I don't do the hard hikes anymore. We walked to the back parking lot and then took a narrow trail up to the other hill with the fenced trail. Years ago my daughter Danielle and I went up to capture a moon shot around midnight.
