Pelly River Crossing Campground sits on the bank of the Pelly River along the North Klondike Highway, approximately 100 kilometres north of Carmacks.

The campground is free to use and offers basic amenities including tables, water, toilets, and a boat launch, at an elevation of around 1,495 feet.

The setting is family friendly and positioned at a historically and culturally significant stretch of river in Selkirk First Nation territory.

Nearby interpretive signs along the Pelly River bridge describe the layered history of the area, and the surrounding community of Pelly Crossing offers additional points of interest including walking trails, a waterfront park, and access to the preserved historic townsite of Fort Selkirk.
