Eielson Farm Road

The Eielson Farm Road access site on Piledriver Slough provides a boat ramp and launch point for kayakers, canoeists, and small motorized boats in the North Pole, Alaska area. The slough flows into the nearby Tanana River, which is a major waterway in interior Alaska.

This access point is located about 15 miles southeast of Fairbanks, just off the Richardson Highway. The boat ramp is located on a dirt road, but is accessible to vehicles. Boaters and paddlers should be prepared for the remote, natural setting and plan accordingly. While there are no amenities or services at the site, it provides a convenient launch point for exploring Piledriver Slough and the surrounding area by water.

For those looking to access the Chena River Lakes recreation area, the Eielson Farm Road site may serve as a good starting point, though it is not officially part of that managed area. Paddlers and boaters should always check conditions, plan their route, and practice safe boating habits when launching from this remote access point.
