About
Russian Jack Springs Park is a large municipal park in Anchorage, Alaska, at 1500 Lidia Selkregg Ln. It is a place to spend an unhurried afternoon outdoors, whether you are walking, cycling, or simply looking for a green space in the middle of the city.
What you will find
- Natural springs, which give the park its name and its historic character
- An extensive network of trails through forested areas
- Open meadows that suit a picnic, a stroll, or a quiet break
- A range of recreational facilities for different kinds of activity
The mix of woodland and open ground means the park feels varied over a single visit. You can move from shaded paths among the trees to wide grassy spaces without leaving the grounds.
Planning your visit
Russian Jack Springs suits visitors who want to see the outdoors close to the city centre of Anchorage. Because the trail system is extensive, it rewards a visit of some length, and it works equally well for a short walk. If you have questions before you go, the park can be reached by phone at +1-907-343-4355.
Anchorage offers a wide range of other attractions and places to eat and stay, so a stop at the park can easily be combined with time elsewhere in the city.
