First of all, we had a great time in this camp site with our 25 foot RV, we were gone before 7 am and back at 8 pm, so not alot of time spent during the day. You must stay 3 nights and no moving your car or RV, we stayed for 4 nights. It seems lots of people walk... More

We stayed here for 2 nights while visiting Denali. Friendly (a bit hovering) camp host, nice crowd, pretty sites and nice riverbed hike nearby.

Loved this campground. Traveled there in a 30 ft RV and had plenty of room. Sites spaced well apart. No hookups and only pit toilets but who cares! You are in Denali! Loved the remoteness of this area. Walked by river which is super close-saw a caribou meander by. We were within yards of it-will never forget that up close... More

Teklanika is the RV camp further into the park. Staying there the trip into the park is 1 hour shorter! From Savage RIver (mile 15 of the Park Road) no private vehicles can go in the park, except if you are staying in Teklanika (mile 29). Take into account that from mile 15 the road is gravel. The minimum stay... More

Like most national park campgrounds this one gets a lot use, but is well located, well laid out and very clean and organized. The vault toilets near our site were literally brand new. This location puts you 29 miles into the park. It's the farthest in you can camp with your own vehicle or RV. It saves you an hour... More

The campground is rustic. The actual sites are small gravel areas that have a picnic table and a fire ring. The bathrooms are vault and are kept very clean and supplied. There are 2 big food lockers. There are 2 spigots for water. There is an amphitheatre ...basically some log seats grouped together. The ranger programs are held here in... More

The campsite itself was nice and just as expected. But something we did not understand ahead of time is that the shuttle passes that you acquire through TEK do not allow you to travel South of the campsite (IE back to the visitor center). So once we were there we could shuttle back and forth to any of the locations... More

Since Tek Campground is 30 miles within the park, you can access the park without having to ride on the bus those extra 60 miles RT. But the best part of Tek Campground is the Tek shuttle bus pass- for the price of $30 you can ride the shuttle buses for as many times as you'd like during your stay... More
