Coldfoot Camp is located near the Brooks Range in Alaska, featuring flat tundra and surrounding mountains. Temperatures can range from below freezing in winter to mild in summer, with significant seasonal variation. Visitors can explore the nearby Arctic National Wildlife Refuge and the Gates of the Arctic National Park, both offering unique natural experiences.
Description
Camping with your own tent and gear is free of charge. Just ask a host for tips on where to set up camp once you get here.
Limited RV hookups are available for $49 per night. We provide power and water, but no sewage, cable, or internet.
Located near the famously beautiful Gates of the Arctic National Park and Arctic National Wildlife Refuge, Coldfoot Camp provides easy access for adventure and play in the surrounding Brooks Range wilderness.
Coldfoot’s prime location at Mile 175 on the Dalton Highway serves as a natural base for summer flightseeing, hiking, rafting, fishing, and exploring.
In the colder months, there’s world-class aurora viewing, dog mushing adventures, and a chance to take a scenic backcountry snowshoe tour with a local guide.
Guests range from travelers exploring the region, to workers staying in camp while on a remote job, to truckers seeking coffee and a rest break. A unique mix of personalities brings a great energy to a secluded area.
Coldfoot Camp is open year-round and features a cafe, rustic (but clean) overnight accommodations, tour services, fuel, and minor tire repairs.
