Cooper Landing

Gem of The Kenai

The gem of the Kenai Peninsula: an emerald in the summer and a diamond in the winter. For those seeking one of the finest, most diverse outdoor recreation area Alaska has to offer, Cooper Landing is an awesome choice. Conveniently located in the middle of the Kenai Peninsula, nestled in the majestic Kenai Mountains along the beautiful, turquoise waters of Kenai Lake and the upper Kenai River. These waters are uniquely tinted blue-green by suspended, ultra-fine glacial silt. Along with the majestic beauty in Cooper Landing there is world-class fishing, rafting, hiking, sightseeing, horseback riding, native culture, gold panning, mountain biking, sea kayaking, lodging and dining; just to name a few of the many wonderful things to enjoy in the summer. Cooper Landing is also spectacular in the winter; it offers cross-country skiing, snow machining, ice fishing and sleigh rides. Cozy winter nights by a campfire in a warm, small town atmosphere.
