Brooks River Corridor permit required through Oct. 31
A permit is required for most activities in the Brooks River Corridor from June 15 through October 31.
- The corridor includes the river and land within 50 yards of either bank, from the Lake Brooks inlet downstream to the elevated bridge and boardwalk; graveled roads and trails, boardwalks, wildlife-viewing platforms, and redfish-fishery subsistence activities are exempt.
- Permits are valid for 7 days and allow groups of up to 6 people; they are free with a $6 booking fee.
- The permit system supports visitor safety, compliance, and resource protection because the Brooks River is an important brown-bear food source and increasing bear populations and human presence pose inherent risks.
Review Brooks River permit requirements before entering the corridor.
