About Kenai River Special Management Area
Set aside in 1984, this corridor follows the Kenai River for over 105 miles and takes in Kenai and Skilak lakes, with runs of all five Pacific salmon species. Drift the upper river, camp at four Middle River campgrounds, or watch trumpeter swans and sandhill cranes at the river mouth.
