Alaska Parks
Many of Alaska's state parks are challenging to reach. Some areas of the more than 3.3 millions acres of parks require a boat or floatplane for access. The payoff makes any inconvenience worthwhile, as Alaskan vistas and wildlife are a unique experience. Campers, hikers, anglers, and wildlife spotters can all find delight in one of Alaska's many remote and rustic state parks.
Visitors to the Kodiak archipelago can see virgin Sitka spruce forests with a trip to Shuyak Island State Park. Visit Fort Abercrombie, a World War II defense installation, and enjoy the view off of striking cliffs or cast a line in the lake stocked with trout. The Buskin River is a hotspot for those seeking to bring home a delicious dinner of Sockeye and Coho Salmon.
Alaska's state parks are varied and offer something for visitors of all types and ages. These parks preserve the history, culture and natural beauty of the great state of Alaska, best of all, they are open for the public to enjoy.
