Maps

 

For visitors looking for their own copy, the park's official brochure is available at park visitor centers, the administrative office, or by contacting us.

The maps on this website are for trip planning purposes only. They should not be used for navigation or backpacking. Use a navigational chart and tide tables for navigation on the water. Topographic maps of the park, such as the National Geographic Trails Illustrated map (available in park bookstores) provide a broad view of the park. Various maps and guidebooks are available through Alaska Geographic or in the park bookstore.

Check out more detailed directions and learn about getting around the park.

Camping and Landing Beaches

Camping in the coastal fjords can be challenging. The fjords can be a harsh environment with only a few protected coves. These coves can provide an accessible area for landing or camping and are only accessible by boat, kayak, or water taxi. Using a navigational chart and tide tables is vital for navigation, trip planning and safety.
