Join an experienced Alaskan trail guide for a walk through natural, unspoiled beauty in the coastal rain forest on a remote island in the Tongass National Forest. The trail takes you through a beautiful old growth forest, by way of a secluded beach, and is mostly boardwalk, about one-mile in length and well maintained. Follow your knowledgeable guide through this ancient forest and learn about botanic species native to this region, like Western red cedar and yellow cedar that early Natives were so dependent upon for spiritual enrichment, shelter and transportation, and how Sitka spruce was instrumental in the construction of Howard Hughes’ famous “Spruce Goose” and other early vintage fighter planes. After hiking this gently sloped historic trail, enjoy an Alaskan snack of smoked salmon, cheese and crackers, hot chocolate, coffee, juice and water. Then take some time to explore the natural beauty around you. A motorized rigid inflatable Seahawk provides a short, but exciting cruise along the coast of Clover Passage.

Your naturalist/guide will bring the rich forest to life as you meander along an improved trail, leading to a series of elevated tree platforms and suspension bridges amongst the magnificent stands of spruce, hemlock and cedar. Watch for bears from the safety of above ground platforms and bridges which maximize your viewing and provide protection. To limit resource impacts, only a limited number of small groups have access to this exclusive bear viewing area.

Leaving the private elevated wildlife viewing system, the rainforest trail transforms to a boardwalk perched over grassy wetlands alongside Eagle Creek, home to a rich run of spawning salmon.

The group size will be limited to ensure an intimate experience. The focus of your tour will be to view black bears in their natural habitat. Your guide may change the order of the tour or time spent in any one spot to give you the best chance to view bears. The half-mile long trail is upon relatively flat terrain. Although the chances for seeing bear are excellent, wildlife sightings cannot be guaranteed. Visit our General Store and enjoy a complimentary smoked salmon snack, coffee, tea, or hot chocolate at the conclusion of the tour.

Your professionally trained guides will outfit you with state of the art safety equipment and provide a detailed safety briefing before transporting you in a 4 x 4 all-terrain vehicle up the densely forested hillside to the first zipline tree platform. This is your introduction to nearly a mile of dual high tension cables linking a network of platforms mounted high in carefully selected old growth spruce trees.
Your guides will progressively ease you into the forest canopy along ten zip lines. Cross two aerial suspension bridges, with breathtaking views of spectacular Bullion Creek, and enjoy unique views of Juneau from the treetops. Discover hidden ruins of the historic Treadwell Mine (1881-1917), once one of the world’s largest gold mines, and zip over a 180-foot deep “glory hole”. Looking from above, see the ruins of the original mine refinery, where millions of dollars of molten gold was poured into ingot molds.
You will be surrounded by the sights and sounds of Alaska’s rainforest throughout this award winning nature-based adventure.

Fast, fun, and exhilarating, this approximately 3.75 hour adventure is sure to excite nature lovers and thrill seekers alike! Get a running start on solid ground and take flight into the treetops of the Alaskan rainforest!

It all starts at your cruise dock when you meet up with your guide. From there, enjoy an entertaining historic tour through downtown Skagway then along 9 miles of stunning coastline. When you arrive at our base in Dyea, you will transfer into our customized unimog—an all-wheel drive vehicle necessary for getting up our rugged mountain road. During your adventurous ride up the mountain, look out at the impressive rainforest and glacially fed waterfalls. Get psyched—you're about to fly over this wild landscape!

At the top of the mountain, you will suit up in gear that meets the highest standards of safety while your highly trained guide tells you what to expect and how to safely navigate the course. You will then be lead to the take off zone, where you'll clip in and fly away! You'll soar through a course of 11 ziplines, the longest measuring 750ft—that's longer than 2 football fields combined! But this is more than just any zip course. Our lines will bring you directly above glacially fed waterfalls, so close you will actually feel the mist as you zoom by! For the more cautious adventurers, rest assured that you can always control your own speed with a brake system. But we double dog dare you to let go and zoom up to 45 miles per hour!

Of course, that's a little too fast to take those perfect pictures of the Alaskan wilderness. That's why we decided that a hardcore unimog and an 11 line zip course over waterfalls just isn't quite enough. So we added 4 state of the art suspension bridges. From these bridges, you'll be able to capture stunning photos of you and your loved ones in the heart of Alaska's wild beauty.

After completing the course, pat yourself on the back, say goodbye to your guides, and enjoy your last ride in the unimog to your bus at the bottom of the mountain. Take advantage of the scenic drive back to Skagway to look over your pictures and joke about who was the bravest zipliner. This is bound to be an "E.X.C.U.R.S.I.O.N of a lifetime", one you will surely remember for years to come!

Riding through the Klondike Gold Rush National Park,
you'll pass some of the few remaining signs of what was once a scrambling
Gold rush town of 10,000 people. Next, ride onto the Dyea flats overlooking
the northern tip of the Lynn Canal. Includes snacks around the fire pit.

** All Minors Must be Accompanied by a Legal Guardian.**

The Yukon Sightseeing Tour will also introduce you to Skagway's rich Klondike Gold Rush history, while leaving you plenty of time for other activities.
Your three and a half hour tour begins with a narrated overview of Skagway's Historic District.   Then we follow the Klondike Highway out of Skagway, paralleling the original White Pass Trail and White Pass & Yukon Route Railroad train ride.
Traveling from Skagway to the White Pass Summit Area, looking across the Skagway River Valley, one may see the White Pass Train, beautiful waterfalls. As you leave Skagway, Alaska's glacially carved White Pass Summit Area, the daunting Tormented Valley will beckon you on to the majestic lakes and mountains of northwest British Columbia and into the southwest corner of the Yukon Territory.
From here you will head back to Skagway, Alaska with spectacular scenery photos.  You will truly cherish the memories of this once in a lifetime experience. Activity Level: Easy with short walking distances, suitable for all ages.
