Hiking

X-Lake Loop is an easy trail that circles Talkeetna Lake, offering vibrant scenery and a diverse ecosystem. The flat trail is surrounded by forest, making it an ideal spot to admire a variety of plants, mushrooms, and wildlife, including raptors, loons, foxes, bears, moose, otters, and beavers. Nature enthusiasts will especially enjoy hiking after rain, when mushrooms are more likely to appear and the colors are popping.
