Sanctuary Campground is a 7 site campground open only to tent campers. It is the first so-called “primitive” campground. There is no potable water or electricity at this campground. Sanctuary River itself flows clear most of the summer, so you need not worry about silt or other sediment clogging your filter. Sanctuary River is a heavily wooded campground, with screening between most sites. The immediate area is brushy, but nearby mountains offer chances to hike directly from the campground and gain elevation, with views of Mt. McKinley to the south possible on clear days, after some strenuous up-hill hiking.
Park Details:
- 7 Tent sites
