If you chose on driving yourself, please see the google map above and/or follow our driving directions:
DRIVING DIRECTIONS for self-driving to your ice fishing tour with meeting location at "Chena Lakes Recreation Area": Drive south on Richardson Highway just passed North Pole until you see the exit sign for “Chena Lakes Recreation Area” or Buzby Rd.. Take exit, turn left at the first traffic light and go under the overpass. Take the first right again following the sign for "Chena Lake Recreation Area". After about 2miles you will enter the park at a toll booth with an area map and the road splits temporarily. Keep driving along the dam to your right until you get to the sign that says “Lake Park”, turn left here. Go around the lake to the boat ramp. Watch out for a small company sign with an arrow pointing to the right with our logo - "Alaska Fish & Raft Adventures Ice Fishing". There is also a “boat rental” sign; park across the bathroom cabin. Walk down to the lake and to the 2 brown (wooden) cabins numbers “F33” and “F38”, approx. 200ft to right from the boat ramp. The cabins have solar panels next to the door. This is your meeting location!
