About this park
Wood-Tikchik State Park near Dillingham is the largest state park in the United States, covering about 1.6 million acres of southwest Alaska. It is a roadless wilderness of connected lakes, wild rivers and rugged mountains, including the Wood River Mountains. The park is famous for its salmon and world-class fishing, and its remoteness makes it a favorite for experienced paddlers, anglers and floatplane visitors. Wildlife is abundant, and the scenery is dramatic in every direction. There is no parking fee, and access is remote only. Plan carefully, since this is a true wilderness with no roads, services or easy rescue.
