Yukon - Charley Rivers National Preserve

2 stamp stations

Eagle Visitor Center

Address: West end of 1st Avenue, Eagle, AK 99738

This roadless preserve protects 130 miles of the Yukon River and the entire wild Charley River basin in east-central Alaska, a landscape of gold rush history and big wildlife. Abandoned mining camps like Seventymile and relics like Biederman's Cabin, where a mail carrier boarded sled dogs, recall the 1890s stampede era.

Watch for moose, bears, and salmon on a guided Yukon float trip and explore the old mining relics along the river. For a challenge, experienced boaters can take on a multi-day float down the Charley, a serious wilderness river with whitewater and total solitude.
