A 3-mile loop from the Eagle River Nature Center through mixed forest and beaver ponds to the gravel bars of glacial Eagle River, dropping about 100 feet from the parking area. Seasonal muddy spots. Brown bears feed on salmon here, and the loop closes in late summer to protect visitors; check with the nature center.
