Is camping free in Alaska?
There are many places in the state where you can camp free. Alaska also has a great rule where you can “boondock,” or sleep on the side of the road in your vehicle, on many areas in the state. Because the state is so large and the amenities are so few, this is a good option for many travelers who are heading out long distances. It’s also safer for travelers as they can pull over and get a good night’s sleep instead of driving while they’re tired.
Is it safe to camp in Alaska?
Camping in Alaska can be absolutely safe! Your biggest concern is going to be bears. Invest in a good bear proof container for your food if you’re hiking in the backcountry, and then practice bear safety. Tie that container up high and away from your camp. If your car camping then make sure to pack up all of your food safely in the car, and don’t leave anything smelling good around the campsite. Even your chapstick can smell delicious!
