The Tanana is a long wide river that runs over 580 miles through Alaska's roadless interior, offering paddlers literally hundreds and hundreds of waterway to explore. The limited access to the river and remote setting requires multi-day paddle trips. The river is very wide and prone to wind that can result in rough waters and large waves so be sure to pull over and wait out bad weather. This stretch of river covers over 50 miles between Fairbanks and the small community of Nenana. Take-out at the public beach located on the left before the Parks Highway Bridge.
