Review:

Bodenburg Butte is an isolated mountaintop that can be found at the bottom of the Matanuska Valley. Locals and visitors are invited to take a day trip to the stunning surrounding, which takes around one to two hours and is three miles round trip. A majority of the trail is overlaid with gravel, making it easy to navigate, and takes you through the thick forest, open fields, and rocky flats. It’s best to do the hike between May and November when the weather is amazing, as the incline could be more difficult during the winter. Some of the sites you’ll see on the trail include Pioneer Peak, Lazy Mountain, and the Knik Glacier. Map
