About this campground

Chilkat State Park south of Haines Alaska provides primitive tent and RV camping that sits in a mixed forest of evergreens and deciduous trees at the edge of Chilkat Inlet. The boat launch provides access to the inlet and the run of king salmon in early June.

What campers say

Chilkat State Park is widely praised for dramatic coastal and mountain scenery, abundant wildlife sightings, and a variety of short hikes and photo opportunities. Campground hosts and well‑kept sites and restrooms receive frequent positive comments, and many sites are pull‑through. Practical tradeoffs include a rough access road with tight turns that can challenge larger RVs, occasional through‑traffic inside the loop, and limited cell coverage near some sites. A boat launch and good paddling opportunities are nearby, but the launch area is separate from the loops and may require driving to reach.
