King Salmon, AK – Katmai National Park and Preserve (Katmai) is pleased to announce that Brooks Camp Campground will open at 100% capacity for the 2022 season. Katmai program managers are closely monitoring the COVID-19 pandemic and using a phased approach to increase access.

Campers are limited to 7 nights in July and 14 nights per calendar year. Group size is limited to 6.

Katmai encourages visitors to plan their visit by checking the park website and social media for current conditions and travel tips.
