Harp Mountain Community Hike

Location: Harp Mountain Trail, Eagle River

Led by: Tina Powers

Join us for a challenging and rewarding adventure up Harp Mountain, one of Eagle River’s most scenic ridge hikes! This 3.2-mile out-and-back trail climbs 2,600 feet and offers panoramic views of South Eagle River, the Chugach Range, and—on a clear day—distant peaks like Denali and Foraker.

Trail Details:

• 🥾 Distance: 3.2 miles round trip

• ⛰️ Elevation Gain: 2,600 ft

• ⚠️ Difficulty: Challenging

• ⏱️ Duration: Approx. 3.5 hours

• 🐕 Dogs allowed on leash

The trail begins above the tree line and quickly gains elevation, transitioning into a steep ascent with a rocky scramble to reach the summit. Expect epic views of the Hiland and Eagle River valleys and a serious sense of accomplishment at the top.

What to Bring:

• Sturdy hiking shoes or boots

• Trekking poles (recommended)

• Layers and wind protection

• Water and snacks
