Trail
River Campground on Kenai Lake, while there are no RV hook-up, is still on the recommended
list as this is one of the most scenic campgrounds on the entire Kenai Peninsula. Large private
campsites and loads of trails leading to the river and to the lake shore too make this a very fun
and active camping experience for visitors of all ages. While the lower loop offers trail access
to the lake shore, the upper loops remain as some of our favorites as the solitude they offer is
truly an Alaskan experience worth returning for.
