One of the best places in Alaska to catch a trophy salmon is the Kenai Peninsula. It is world renowned for the size and variety of fish in the waters. The Kenai river lodge has everything needed for a memorable wilderness experience and an angling trip to beat all others.
The Peninsula lies just south of Anchorage so it is easy to get to, just three hours by road. The lodge is just off the Sterling Highway so is easy to find. However, its proximity to the capital and road network does not spoil the feeling of remoteness enjoyed there. The population of the whole region is less than 60 000 people and you can hike for days without seeing anyone.
Salmon is what Kenai is all about. The Largest King Salmon ever recorded was landed in the river. Trophy fishing is a big thing here so everything you need to enjoy a top angling trip is available. There is also a run of red salmon which are the species preferred by foodies and chefs.
The red salmon, more popular with cooks runs in June. Silver salmon also have two runs, one in August and the other in October. Salmon is not the only fish on the menu, there are also some pretty impressive trout to be found. Fishing licenses can be bought almost anywhere or online and the local area has tons of tackle shops to cater for every angling need.
At Kenai Lodge the hosts have made sure to cater for anglers. There is a large stretch of riverbank so that you can get up and start fishing straight away. They also provide cleaning stations, freezers for storage and a fire pit and grills for cooking. The lodge is located just off the main road from Anchorage so it is easy to access.
The wider area of the peninsula is perfect for nature lovers and sports people. Local rivers and fjords provide a number of exciting kayaking and white water rafting opportunities. Hiking trails cross the landscape and can be used for mountain biking and cross country running. Local wildlife is spectacular with bears, elk, moose and lots of birds.
Soldotna is the nearest town to the lodge and has all the amenities a traveler may need. There are shops and restaurants, museum of local history and information centres for the local parks and wildlife. Several hiking trails leave the town and are accessible by bike. In the summer months there are a range of special events and festivals to enjoy including a beer festival.
For a fantastic fishing experience the Kenai River is a great place to go. Salmon is the main catch but anglers will be amazed by the range of species and the size of the fish. The area is easy to reach yet is an unspoiled wilderness of incredible beauty. Other activities include hiking, bird watching, canoeing, mountain biking and rafting.
