## Overview

**Beginning Aug. 15, 2024, the Russian River Campground will be closed to the
Public for construction.**

Construction crews will rebuild and widen one mile of the access road, making
it more stable and resistant to frost heaves. During the closure, all vehicle
and pedestrian access will be restricted and campground reservations on
Recreation.gov will be unavailable. The Forest Service anticipates the first
day for reservation arrivals will be June 5, 2025.

Russian River Campground is perched between the Russian and Kenai Rivers in
south-central Alaska. It lies within driving distance of two main population
centers, 110 miles south of Anchorage and 40 miles east of Soldotna,
surrounded by the Chugach National Forest and the Kenai National Wildlife
Refuge.  

Each year, this area is visited by over 100,000 people who recreate at the
Russian River Campground, Ferry Access Site, Sportsman's Boat Launch, Russian
Lakes Trail and K'beq Site. Hiking, biking and fishing are popular pastimes.

top-rated spot for rainbow trout. Retention of sockeye salmon is legal from
June 11th to August 20th. Silver salmon can be retained from July 1st to
September 30th. Trout can be retained from June 11th through April 30th.
Anglers are required to have a State of Alaska Fishing license and obey all
