A hidden gem with great trails and views
This place is a hidden gem. We only had time to walk the shorter Glacier View Trail, but it was a very pleasant outing with fireweed lining the trails and views of the glaciers across the bay. There were only a few other visitors so we had the place pretty much to ourselves. Very enjoyable!

Wildflowers, Water, Glaciers Alaska Style
By accident, we drove to this place and had a wonderful scenic one hour hike. I saw some of the most amazing wildflowers ever and some interesting glacier formations, across the Kachemak Bay, that were different to the glaciers you see from the Homer Spit. On a clear day, the view of the Homer Spit coming back is also fantastic. Eveline State Recreation Area is about a 20-minute drive east (on East Coast Road, a very scenic drive) away from the Homer Business District. If you have a car in Homer, drive to this Recreation Area for an easy to medium hike and excellent views. If you have a state park pass, you can use it here, otherwise a $5 day pass works.
