Island camping in Alaska means rugged rivers, temperate rain forest, and an awesome time for all! On Prince of Wales Island just ten miles from the ferry landing you can set up home base at Harris River Campground and have good access to fishing spots, hiking trails, and even a boardwalk that goes over a thriving muskeg habitat (think grassy bog). This primitive, RV and tent friendly campground has all the basics covered, so bring all your favorite treats and be camp chef while you are here. Enjoy wildlife viewing, try your luck at fishing, and just relax at this one of a kind place!
