Favored by locals and visitors, North End Park is situated on Kodiak’s Near Island. The park is popular with hikers, as the trail is great for those who just go on an occasional walk as well as avid hikers. The trail is extremely well maintained, clearly marked, covered, and winds through the lush forest setting. During your walk you’ll come across scattered benches where you can sit and enjoy the views of the beach, the town, or the fishing boats on the channel. The trail at North End Park goes by the Kodiak Fisheries Research Center, which has an aquarium and a touch tank for visitors to enjoy.
