Discover Alaska Native heritage and see world-
famous totems in this postcard-pretty town. Or
stroll Creek Street and browse its shops and
waterfront restaurants. Need more? Go adventuring!
Take a zipline tour above the lush forest, or dive in
for an unusual near-coast snorkeling trip.
In Alaska's modern capital, you can take a tram to
the top of Mount Roberts, museum hop, or view
world-class Alaska Native artwork at the Walter
Soboleff Building. Adventures and natural wonders,
like the icy blue Mendenhall Glacier, flightseeing
and dogsled tours, are plentiful too.
A picturesque place with style all its own, Gustavus
is the gateway to Glacier Bay National Park. Walk
the town to view the beautiful surroundings (and
peek at locals' gardens). Then explore the antiques
on display at the Petroleum Museum or Bartlett
Cove to stroll the trails.
This history-rich town (22 locations on the National
Register of Historic Places!) is an Alaska influence
mash-up. See St. Michael's Russian Orthodox
Cathedral's onion dome, the totems at Sitka
National Historic Park, the art at a local gallery—
then stroll a trail lined with Sitka spruce.
Miners seeking Klondike riches launched from
Skagway during the Gold Rush. Shades of 1898
linger here in old-fashioned boardwalks and
frontier-style storefronts. Take the White Pass
& Yukon Route Railroad to explore the gorgeous
landscape—and to see how daunting those
miners' journeys were.
