About Skagway

Skagway is a small Alaska Panhandle town that grew during the Gold Rush, and most of it can be explored in a few hours. When cruise ships are in port, the SMART bus runs between the dock and downtown. Many visitors follow the Klondike Gold Rush National Historical Park sites and ranger presentations, visit the Skagway Museum, or catch the Days of '98 Show about outlaw Soapy Smith. Others stroll Jewell Gardens, eat local seafood, or shop downtown for items from the Made In Skagway program.
