The village has a small hospital facility, Circle Health Clinic, a trading post, and post office. Two of our residents hold commercial fishing permits. Almost all residents are involved in subsistence. Salmon, freshwater fish, moose and bear are the major sources of meat. Barges deliver goods by the Yukon River during summer.
Residents use ATVs, snowmobiles and dog sleds for recreation and subsistence activities.
A new State-owned 3,000' lighted gravel airstrip is available. Float planes land on the River. Circle offers incredible views, the hospitality of a small village community, excellent fishing, and solitude. Accomodations are available at the Yukon Trading Post Campground, and with Yukon river tours. People from all walks of life come to Circle to enjoy the beautiful splendor of the Yukon River and to get an idea of the lifestyle in interior Alaska.
