Discover the natural wonders and majestic wildlife of Alaska on a rafting exploration that glides you through the Chilkat Bald Eagle Preserve. Your expedition begins aboard a jet-powered catamaran that will take you through the waterways of Lynn Fjord to the town of Haines. A short, but panoramic, drive down the National Scenic Byway leads to the launch point for your river rafting journey. After a quick safety briefing, climb into an 18-foot inflatable raft and set off down the Chilkat River. Glide through the protected wilderness and keep watch for the park's famed birds of prey soaring overhead. You might also spot moose, or even bear roaming the riverbanks. Go ashore for a simple lunch and homemade cookies enjoyed against the most majestic backdrop imaginable. Follow the river’s edge back to Haines before the brisk catamaran ride back to Skagway.
