Starting from the Dog Mushers Hall, this is the 4 mile loop used by the ADMA trail system. The trail is directional and mileage counted for dog mushing in a clockwise manner as you come from the Mushing Hall. Please keep this in mind when you are using the trail Dog teams have right of way in all circumstances. Other users do not have the directional restriction.

The ADMA trails are a wonderful set of trails to ski, walk, or fat bike in the winter. Close to town, easy access, beautiful, and well maintained by the Alaska Dog Mushing Association. Please consider purchasing a trail pass or donating to them for the work that they do.
