Quick Facts
Location:
Nabesna, Alaska
Significance:
Historic gold mining area
Designation:
National Park and Preserve

Mile 42.5 Nabesna Road.  The maintained portion of the Nabesna Road ends at the Devil's Mountain Lodge, which is private property. Please respect this property and their privacy. Stay alert, and be careful not to park on the airstrip.

Parking: Approximately a 1/4 mile beyond the lodge, there is a gravel parking area that is located on public land. Since the road is not maintained beyond this point, continue by foot to the Rambler Mine trailhead. The trail leads uphill (south) toward the remains of the abandoned Rambler Mine, a gold mining area that was active in the late 1940s. The one mile trail is strenuous and steep but has superlative views of the Nabesna River and the Nutzotin Mountains.
