The Dyea Campground is located 9 miles from Skagway. Nestled in the trees along the banks of the Taiya River with limited amenities, the Dyea Campground is a restful place from busy town. The campground is within a short drive or bike ride of the historic townsite of Dyea and a half mile from the Chilkoot Trailhead. The campground is monitored by National Park Service rangers and is open when free of snow.
Campground is open 24 hours a day during summer months.
This campground is at the end of Lynn Canal and can experience high winds and variable conditions. Be prepared for three-season camping, even in summer.
