Coldfoot Cabin

About

Overview Recreation: The Coldfoot Cabin offers visitors a road-accessible getaway during fall, winter and spring. This cabin is a great way to experience the far north outside of summer months. This is a primitive cabin with no electricity or running water. Popular activities include cross-country skiing, snowshoeing, wildlife viewing, and aurora viewing throughout the winter months. Hiking is possible in the fall, before the snow is too deep. Commercial dogsled and backcountry ski tours are available in the area.  Firewood is not provided, and there is no cutting in the nearby area. The cabin driveway is plowed and shoveled approximately every three weeks throughout the winter, so access could be difficult after heavy snowfall.

Turn right onto the Dalton (AK-11) and continue to milepost 175. Turn left (west of the highway) into the parking area. The Coldfoot Cabin is located on Airport road in Coldfoot.
