Round Tangle Lake is the first in a chain of lakes accessed from the Tangle Lakes Campground off the Denali Highway. A boat launch on the lake offers easy access to miles of shoreline for paddling in a very rugged and scenic wilderness setting. Paddling around the lake is a good option for a short outing but paddlers looking to spend time in the backcountry on the water can paddle the chain of lakes for a multi-day trip.
