Northern Nights Campground & RV Park

The feel

Northern Nights is a roadside campground and RV park at Mile Post 188.7 on the Glenn Highway in Glennallen. It is the closest RV park to the National Park Service Visitors Center for Wrangell St. Elias National Park & Preserve, which makes it a handy base for the park.

The grounds have full hookup sites, pull-thru sites, tent camping and log cabin rentals, with picnic tables, fire rings and nature trails. Ice, firewood and fishing licenses are sold on site, and in the summer there is a free dessert night on Monday, Wednesday and Friday.
