Everything you need to know about visiting the small town of King Salmon, the gateway to Katmai national park. Including how to get there, lodging, dining, and things to-do!

In short, the answer is Late June thru Mid September, but as simple as that may seem there are a few more factors to consider than just a blanket answer. So I will be covering each month in detail so that you may be able to decide when is the right time to visit for yourself.

To get from King Salmon to Katmai, you can choose to use Katmai Expeditions, and we will take care of the rest!

Or will need to Fly with one of the three Air taxi operators or hop on Katmai water taxi all based out of King Salmon.
