Overview

About

What’ll you find when you wander over to the eastern coast of Kodiak Island? You’ll find the gorgeous oasis that is Pasagshak River State Recreation Site. Despite being just a short drive from Kodiak, you’ll feel pretty secluded—meaning many of your adventures in Pasagshak will just be you, a few friends, and good old Mother Nature. We don’t know about you, but in today’s day and age we'd say that’s not too shabby! This area is also well known for its abundance of wildlife, with annual salmon runs plus bears, dolphins, whales, and eagles. Pasagshak also features rustic camping and almost year-round fishing. Clearly, there’s no shortage of nature afoot!

When to go

The ideal time to visit Pasagshak River State Recreation Site is during the summer months, from June to August, when the weather is most favorable for outdoor activities. Conversely, the harsh Alaskan winters from November to March can pose challenges for visitors, with many facilities likely closed due to extreme conditions.

Know before you go

  • Always prioritize safety by preparing for sudden weather changes and carrying bear deterrents.
  • Check the State of Alaska Department of Natural Resources website for any closures or alerts before your trip.
  • Accessibility may vary across different areas of the park; plan accordingly if you have specific needs.
  • While amenities are limited, ensure you pack essentials like water, food, and first-aid supplies.
  • Respect the natural habitat by following Leave No Trace principles and disposing of trash properly.
