Paddle on the gorgeous Chilkoot Lake!

You will meet your guide in Skagway and then board the high-speed catamaran for a 45-minute ride to Haines through America's longest and deepest fjord. Once we reach Haines, we'll take a short tour of Fort Seward, and then head out for a 30-minute drive from downtown Haines which leads us up the Lutak Inlet to the Chilkoot River Valley. The Chilkoot corridor offers incredible wildlife viewing. Brown Bears, eagles, mountain goats, and spawning salmon are commons sights. Our guides are expert naturalists and enjoy sharing their love and knowledge of the Alaskan wilderness.

Once at the lake, we'll head out onto Chilkoot Lake in stable motor-assisted Voyageur Canoes. Our Canoes are built using similar dimensions as the canoes used by trappers and gold miners at the turn of the century. Powered by either paddle or motor, this tour offers guests the opportunity to paddle in the serenity of Chilkoot Lake, while also having the advantage of relaxing and taking photographs when it's time to take a break from paddling. We'll be out on the water for about 1.5 hours and explore the inlets, coves, salmon spawning streams, and numerous waterfalls that spill off of the mountains into the lake.

After enjoying the beautiful views on the lake, we'll return to Haines and serve a picnic-style lunch at a private ocean beach location at the end of the trip.
