King Salmon, Alaska Overview

King Salmon serves as the main gateway to Katmai National Park. Often overshadowed by the state's more famous Denali National Park, Katmai is equally as rugged and beautiful, with a vast area, the Valley of Ten Thousand Smokes, shaped by volcanic activity. The area attracts tourists looking to explore its remote wilderness and untouched waterways, or see the park's famous brown bears at Brooks Camp.
