About this park

The cabin is located inside a large tide flat on Kupreanof Island at the mouth of the Castle River on the west side of Duncan Canal. The surrounding terrain is predominantly flat-to-rolling old-growth forest and muskeg. A variety of wildlife makes its home in the area, including moose, deer, black bears, waterfowl and grouse ( learn more about bear safety ).

Recreation
The Castle River Trail leads a half-mile downstream to the Castle Flats Cabin, and a half-mile upstream to a rowboat and oars. Wildlife can be seen along the trail. Waterfowl, grouse, moose, deer and bear hunting is also available in designated seasons as per state or federal hunting regulations; click here for more information from the Alaska Department of Fish and Game. Visitors also enjoy fishing for steelhead trout from April to May, trout from May to October, and coho salmon in mid-August through mid-September. Boating is a popular way to explore the area, but a 16-foot tide is required to cross the tide flats in front of the cabin ( local tide tables ). Life jackets are not available; visitors must bring their own. Visitors may also choose to bring a small outboard motor for the rowboat.
