Moving To Sterling, Alaska (New House-New Life)

WHERE: STERLING, ALASKA




Ten miles northeast of Soldotna, Sterling is a full-service community serving the needs of the outdoor enthusiasts before they venture into the surrounding wilderness. Campgrounds, state access sites and trails are plentiful but the Kenai National Wildlife Refuge draws most of the attention. Sterling’s location is the key to its popularity as the town serves as the base for anglers and canoers who arrive every summer to land trophy king salmon or paddle the wilderness waterways of the Kenai National Wildlife Refuge. The surrounding area was home to the Kenaitze Indians 2,000 years ago and an archaeological site, containing prehistoric house pits, was uncovered at the Isaac Walton State Recreation Site just west of Sterling.
The Kenai National Wildlife Refuge encompasses two million acres and is home to the Swan Lake and the Swanson River canoe routes that connect 120 miles of lakes and rivers in an undulating landscape. The 60-mile Swan Lake route is the more popular choice for paddlers as it connects 30 lakes and the Moose River with portages. You could spend more than a week paddling this area and finish just west of Sterling at the Sterling Highway. For more information on paddling, canoe outfitters or drop-off services contact the Kenai National Wildlife Refuge (907-262-7021).
