Wow, so much to say. No matter what your particular interest is, you will find it here. Soldotna is considered the "Heart of the Kenai Peninsula, A River City". Of course, we are best known for our world class fishing but we have so much more to offer. (Voted the #1 Fishing Hotspot in North America by Field and Stream Magazine in 2004).
