Trail River Campground is a great spot for anglers looking for some stunning mountain scenery.

The campground is nestled in a forest of hemlock and spruce, between the Trail River and Kenai Lake. Cast a line for dolly varden and rainbow trout in the river, or trout and grayling in the lake, all the while surrounding by views of snow-capped mountains in the distance. Hikers and bikers can also head out on the many miles of trails through the rugged mountains, past streams and through forests. Entrance roads are sometimes groomed for freestyle and Nordic skiing in the winter months, so bring along your skis!

Moose Pass is an hour and a half South of Anchorage, just 30 miles from Seward and Kenai Fjords National Park. Access to the yurt requires boating to the trailhead. It's not for everyone, as it does require basic backcounty knowledge, preparedness for potential wildlife encounters and an ability to kayak and pack your own equipment in and out of the area. However, if you're comfortable with that, we are able to provide certain gear if you just aren't travelling with your personal equipment. Once at camp, our overnight yurt guests have included access to our kayaks for paddling around Grant Lake from the designated time of Check-In until the time of Check-Out each day. The yurt sleeps up to five guests in one double and three twin beds. There is a coleman stove up at camp with some basic pots and pans, a cast iron woodstove and a nice handmade spruce table for a good game of cards or some board games.
