| Chena Lake Recreation Area |
River Park Non-Motorized Trails: Staff will groom and set new cross country skiing tracks Thursday, March 4th. Conditions will be optimal for skiers and will remain suitable for hiking and dog walking, as well. The Winter Trails Challenge marker is on the 2.5 kilometer cutoff. Please remember these are non-motorized trails.
Mike Agbaba Multiuse Trail: Trails have improved and trails were freshly groomed Wednesday, March 3. Suitable for skiing and dog mushing due to the fresh fallen snow. All sections are still firm enough for walking and fat biking. Find the Winter Trails Challenge marker on the 5.1 mile loop cut off before breakup, as it is only accessible by crossing sections of the lake!
Chena Lake Recreation Area winter trails map can be viewed at https://fairbanksak.myrec.com/forms/6024_clrawintermap2020.pdf. Other groomed trails in the Park include a loop around the Lake Park Day Use Field, the Lake Park peninsula maintenance trail, and camp loop #2 in the River Park. The 4 acre ice fishing field is plowed for usage. It is recommended that highway vehicles stay within the plowed boundary. High winds have polished the surface; drive and walk with caution.
