Calvin and Coyle Nature Trail

The Calvin and Coyle Woodland Park is an important greenspace of forest and meadows that is home to resident wildlife. The property is located near downtown Homer.

This almost 30-acre property has a 1.5-mile loop trail which includes a viewing platform overlooking Beluga wetlands. This wonderful walking trail offers visitors the opportunity to see a variety of birds and other wildlife.

Note:
This trail’s uneven terrain requires visitors to have sure footing.

Effler Trail

The Gene and Mim Effler property is located in Homer’s Bridge Creek Watershed Protection District—the source of Homer’s drinking water.

The 18-acre property has a short, raised boardwalk trail and viewing platform. The Efflers were among the first homesteaders in the area, and Gene had a longtime dream of creating a trail for the Homer community on a portion of their original homestead.

Poopdeck Community Trail

KHLT is planning to build an Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) accessible trail across its almost 3.5-acre Poopdeck property and across the adjacent land owned by the City of Homer. The construction of the trail is scheduled to take place summer 2019, pending funding approval.

KHLT has been working with the City of Homer, the Homer Independent Living Center, and Alaska State Parks, and worked with the National Park Service’s Recreational Trails program and US Fish and Wildlife Services. Stay tuned as this wonderful community project develops.
