Skagway

Run

Many Skagway runners like to do the Dyea Road loop. You can head up the Yakutania Point trail to the Dyea Road, take the Dyea road to the Klondike Highway, which will lead you back to the port. That is about 5 miles.

*after run go to visitor center, ask about where best to hike based on local recent sitings. Ask about live music in evening and/or dinner

**LOCATION - on Broadway between 2nd & 3rd Avenues. Just look for the building covered in driftwood. We should open at 8 am Hike Yakutania Point area trails and the Dewey Lakes Trail System are within walking distance from your ship dock ***Yakutaina Point Trail System might provide the best opportunity for wildlife

if you wish to take a snack on hike - Glacial Coffeehouse and Café on 5th probably have the best options for items to stick in your bag. The coffee bar at the White Pass Train Depot and Grizzly’s General on 5th Ave have pre-packaged snacks & sandwiches

Juneau

Run

Waterfront run Waterfront Run

Visit Whale Statue, USS Juneau Memorial, We also recommend running across the Douglas Bridge. There’s a pedestrian path protected from cars, and there are great views to Douglas Island on the 0.5 mile bridge.

Add-Ons: North of the Yacht Club, it’s possible to run along Egan Dr. (Highway 7). There are wide open views of the water and mountains along this road. Note that this is a highway with two lanes for cars in each direction, but there is a wide shoulder.

Hike

Mount Roberts Trail (2 miles, 1.5 hrs. to the Mountain House; 4.5 miles, 4 hrs. to the summit; moderate) Another popular hike from a different trailhead on Basin Road, Mount Roberts Trail features a series of switchbacks up through boreal forest, providing increasingly good views and wildlife spotting. At 1,760 feet, hikers reach the tree line and the Mount Roberts Mountain House, upper station for the Goldbelt Mount Roberts Tramway. Spend $20 there and ride the tram back down for free with your receipt! Or continue to the top — it’s actually a smoother gradient (and usually less muddy) than the first section. Looking for a shortcut to the ridge? You can also ride the tram up to the Mountain House and start hiking from there.

***Ride Tram Up Hike around and back down
