Soldotna Creek Park
Pull into the parking area
at Soldotna Creek Park and the Sterling Highway suddenly seems
miles away. You don’t have to be a fisherman to enjoy this 5
acre picturesque spot, but it’s okay if you are.
Picnic areas with barbecues
are scattered through the trees and overlook the Kenai River. A
pavilion with picnic tables stands ready in case you want a roof
over your head while you eat. Playground equipment promises to
keep the kids busy and there’s a volleyball net waiting to help
you work off that delicious picnic lunch or dinner. Benches set
to face the river provide a scenic Alaskan setting just right
for daydreaming or the time-out of your choosing.
A wide trail that is
handicapped accessible with assistance, leads to the mouth of
Soldotna Creek and has over 500 feet of elevated boardwalk with
river-access stair units that wind along the edge of the Kenai
River.
How To Find The Park:
The location of this day use
only park makes it a favorite. You can reserve the pavilion for
special gatherings by calling 907-262-6249.
