Yakutania Point Trail

Begins at the footbridge over the Skagway River at the southwest corner of town and winds about half a mile to Yakutania Point (1 to 2 miles round trip, about 100 feet of gain), with a picnic shelter and privy. Harbor seals gather along the shore, sometimes by the dozens in spring when eulachon run; look for arctic terns from the footbridge and sea ducks offshore. The City of Skagway maintains this trail (not the National Park Service); NPS lists distances as round trips from the visitor center at 2nd and Broadway.
