A Family Friendly Tour

This active tour combines kayaking and bicycling so you can experience the best Haines has to offer up close and personal. Begin with a five-mile scenic drive north from Haines to Lutak Inlet, a forested, steep-walled fjord.  You’ll meet your mountain bike guide, get acquainted with your bicycle and begin riding along the edge of the sea to the mouth of the Chilkoot River. Stop to view eagles and other wildlife as you leave the paved road and enter Chilkoot Lake State Park.  This park has it all–a turquoise lake surrounded by snow-capped mountains, important Tlingit cultural sites, and a salmon-filled river flowing into the sea.

Arrive at the lake, take in the scenery and exchange your bicycle for a sea kayak. Sea kayaking is easy to learn and your expert guide will show you the basics of paddling, outfit you with the proper gear, and have you gliding silently along the shores of the lake. Leave the road behind and keep an eye out for brown bear, eagles, and even playful harbor seals who follow the spawning salmon into the lake.

After paddling, return to Haines and tour Ft. William H. Seward, the first U.S. Army base in Alaska.

Notes:  Minimum 3 persons maximum 18.  Minimum height 4' 6"; children who are under height requirement can ride in a "tag along" on parent's bike.  

This tour is not available on Monday or Wednesday
