Directions:
From Anchorage, head northbound on the Glen Highway for roughly 8 miles. Take the Eagle River Loop exit, head right, then take a right at the intersection, onto Hiland Road. Follow this road for several miles until it winds it's way into Hiland Valley. After passing through a steep gourge, look for South Creek road on your right. Turn, then turn right again onto West Creek Drive shortly afterwards; the parking area where the trail begins will be on the left.
Trail description:
The South Fork Trail leads to Eagle and Symphony lakes, two strikingly different lakes nestled close to one another at the back of a large valley. The path starts from a short wooden walkway, then proceeds through an initially hilly section. Just over a mile from the trail head, a bridge is in place which crosses the south fork of Eagle River (hence the trail's name). This is probably where we will turn around.
From memory I do not believe this is stroller friendly. You are welcome to try but I wouldn't recommend it. Hope to see you there:)
