The Skagway Triple Adventure is the ultimate outdoor experience! You bike through the coastal temperate rainforest onto the tidal flats, hike the same Chilkoot Trail as the early goldrush prospectors, then float down the glacial-fed Taiya river on a relaxing raft journey.
The tour begins with a 20-minute narrated van ride to the historic area of Dyea. Where once there was a famous goldrush town of 10,000 prospectors, now nature has reclaimed the land.
Your guide fits you to a bike and escorts you for five miles of easy pedaling on flat dirt roads with stops at historic and nature sites. Search for eagles and view colorful wildflowers while enjoying the beautiful mountain vistas as you pedal along.
Concluding the bike portion you are handed off to another guide for your two mile hike on the Chilkoot Trail. The first mile is up and down over uneven terrain with the second mile being relatively flat. You stop often to
learn about the area, take photos, and quench your thirst. The hike ends at the Taiya Riverbank where you begin the rafting portion of your adventure.
You are outfitted with rubber boots and a life jacket. The river has no whitewater. The relaxing float will be the grand finale to your amazing outdoor experience. Watch for bald eagles diving for fish as you float along, or glimpse a river otter sliding off the bank. At the conclusion of your raft trip you are transferred by van back to Skagway.
