Childs Glacier Recreation Area and Campground

9 sites · RV, Tent

Get out there and get wild with a camping trip to Child’s Glacier recreation site.

Tent campers (and small trailers when the road is open in a few years) are welcome to set up here. You’ll get excellent views of the dynamic Child’s Glacier and the Copper River about a mile from camp. Don’t forget the fishing pole during salmon season because Copper River Salmon (the best!) will be ripe for the pickin. Scope out brown and black bears on the river bank also doing their seasonal fishing. This area is textbook Alaska camping, aka beyond awesome!
