The Visitor Center at the Eagle Field Office offers exhibits depicting the area, history, and ecology of Yukon-Charley Rivers. Visitors can hear historic accounts of the area on an interactive CD-ROM program at the center. Visitors can enjoy a short video presentation on the preserve as well as area specific videos during normal visitor hours. Scheduled nature hikes, talks, and campfire programs are announced at the Visitor Center wayside and at the nearby BLM campground. There are currently four public use cabins located within the preserve. The cabins are along the Yukon River corridor; located at Kandik River mouth, Nation Bluff, Glenn Creek, and historic Slaven's Roadhouse at the mouth of Coal Creek. These cabins are available on a first come, first served basis. Rafting, kayaking and canoeing are popular on the Yukon River. Many people start in Eagle and end in Circle, either arranging to be picked up, or to be flown back to Eagle. Longer trips, from Dawson or Whitehorse to the lower Yukon or Bering Sea, are also popular ways of traveling the Yukon through the preserve. Rafting or kayaking the Charley River is also an excellent way to visit Yukon-Charley Rivers. The entire 1.1 million acre watershed of the Charley River is protected inside preserve boundaries and the river itself is a National Wild River. Air-chartered drop off and pick up, or continuation to Circle, must be arranged for a trip on the Charley.
