Overview

About

Visiting Big Delta State Historical Park is like stepping back in time. This area was once a super important place for travelers, traders, and the military during the dawn of the 20th century. You don’t have to trade animal pelts to appreciate the history, though! Because there’s so much detailed history in the park’s many buildings, pay special attention to the park interpretive guides. You can also snag a brochure for a self-guided tour. For overnighting, simply mosey on over to the RV camping area, where you’ll have plenty of amenities to make your stay comfortable.

When to go

The ideal time to visit Big Delta State Historical Park is during the summer months, from June to August, when the weather is mild and the days are long. Winter can be harsh and challenging, with limited access and extreme cold, making summer the perfect season to fully enjoy all that the park has to offer.

Know before you go

  • Check the weather forecast before your visit, as conditions can change rapidly in Alaska.
  • Be prepared for encounters with wildlife by keeping a safe distance and storing food securely.
  • Wear appropriate clothing and footwear for rugged terrain and variable weather.
  • Some areas may have limited cell phone reception, so plan accordingly.
  • Respect the park's historical sites and natural resources by following Leave No Trace principles.
