Welcome to Aniakchak Monument Alaska
Found only in one of the most remote locations in Alaska and famed for notoriously bad weather,
Aniakchak is one of the least visited units of the National Park System.
A vibrant reminder of Alaska's location in the volcanically active "Ring of Fire," the monument is home to an impressive six-mile wide,
2,500 ft. deep caldera formed during a massive eruption 3,500 years ago.

Rafting the Aniakchak River
An exciting challenge to even the most experienced river runners, the Aniakchak River runs from Surprise Lake in the caldera,
the river flows swiftly through a narrow gorge in the caldera wall—"The Gates"—and then through treeless tundra to the sea.
The Aniakchak River drops more than 1,000 feet in the first 15 miles leaving the caldera.
The final 12 miles of the 27 mile river is a smooth,
winding float along the open tundra. Watch for bears, moose, and other wildlife as you float.
Local Climate
Summer temperatures in this part of Alaska average in the high 40s to low 50s degrees Fahrenheit,
with most days overcast and wet. Winds are frequent and even in summer these conditions can lead to hypothermia,
the dangerous lowering of the body's core temperature.
