Description

Knoya Peak rises up to about 4,600 ft. above sea level and is a very prominent peak in the Chugach front range skyline. From the end of the Dome Trail, continue east-southeast along the ridgeline up to the top of Knoya, where the ridgeline forks. Heading north takes you to Kanchee Peak, and heading southeast takes you to Tikishla Peak.

This trail has an intermediate/difficult rating for its steep grade.
