Tangle River, AK

Delta Wild and Scenic River - Tangle Lakes and Tangle River (Uppermost Tangle Lake to Outlet of Lower Tangle Lake)

The Delta River watershed is in the Alaska Range in Southcentral Alaska and provides year-round recreational opportunities within its 150,000 acres of land, 160 miles of streams, and 21 lakes. The Tangle River connects several of the Tangle Lakes and then drains into the Delta River, which joins the Tanana River, before flowing into the mighty Yukon River.

This is one of a few easily accessible wild and scenic rivers in the state of Alaska, providing both day use and overnight backcountry excursions. A wide range of outstanding recreational opportunities attract people of all ages and abilities for river-related solitude and the undisturbed environment, or for activities such as wildlife viewing, fishing, hunting, trapping, camping, hiking, snowmachining, skiing, and photography.

Boating opportunities include both lake and river paddling on clear and glacial water stretches, challenging whitewater and exceptional opportunities.
