Description
iOverlander cannot verify if wild camping is permitted at this location. It is your responsibility to verify local laws or obtain consent before staying the night.
Very nice place with beautiful view to the mountains, use the small gravel road from the rest area to the river, pit toilets in the rest area. 1 bar of LTE
Why? By checking in after you’ve visited a place you let others know this place is still functional. You can also add or correct any information.

Popular spot, 4 other rigs parked around here. Mixed bag of spots, good enough for this guy.
Report Check-InNice place to stay. Very beautiful views. There are different spots and also a parking lot. We stayed next to the river.
Report Check-InStayed here last night in our truck camper. Definitely an awesome spot with minimal bugs. We enjoyed the spot closer to the bridge as the other one with a clear sky view was taken.
Two bars 5g on ATT/Cricket
Will definitely stay here again

Report Check-InVery nice place to get off the road for an overnighter. If you’re a larger size unit you probably won’t fit into one of the sites. We parked along the guardrail near the river. Didn’t chance going down to the river since it was still early in the season and didn’t want to take chances. Hardly any skeeters and as far as we can tell the only visitors here for the night. Recommend it.
Report Check-InSandy flat site adjacent to the river. Modest road noise from the Alcan, mostly drowned by the rushing current. Pit toilets and classic Alaska views
Report Check-InBeautiful camping right on the river with view of the bridge. Quiet, not busy, not many bugs right on the water. (tons of mosquitos at the pit toilets though.) Definitely one of our favorite free camping stops.
Report Check-InStayed here on weekend end of June, very quiet, only 1 other Truck, nice view towards the mountains.
Report Check-InWe camped by ourselves down by the sandy/rocky riverbank with no problems in our truck camper. It is a very wide braided river, running low while we were here. Nice view of the mountains.
The sites near the rest area are a bit overgrown, but provide shade and there are picnic tables. The pit toilet was clean and stocked.
There was some road noise.
Report Check-InGreat place with lots of options, from under the bridge to direct at\ in the river. Even rubbish containers and a toilet are there...
Report Check-InNice place, however, it's pretty popular. There were about 8 other parties when we slept here. Enough space for everyone though so no problem.
Report Check-Inafter a horrible night at the Walmart in Fairbanks I slept here very well. nice place with all what you need- place, toilets, benches and bins.
it's close to the highway, but you hear it didn't nicht- even in the night, there is nearly no traffic.
you can stay here direct on the river or in the shade of the trees in the Forrest.
Beautifulllllll! What a view. You can camp in the river bedding (see picture). Pit toilet at the beginning of the road.
Report Check-InStill up to date ! Very beautiful informal campsite and you can find it in the milepost at mile 1392 on the Alaska Highway.
Very quiet, we were 3 campers but the sites are spaced.
very nice place with beautiful view to the mountains, use the small gravel road from the rest area to the river, pit toilets in the rest area
