It is a good idea to get directions and a map for this short hike in the town visitor center. You can walk from the main downtown area or drive and park in the airport parking lot. The trail starts by going over a small river flowing into the ocean. It is a pleasant hike, but fairly short. There was... More

a relatively short distance from town. not well marked, so get map from forest service. area is quite windy, especially when at the point. little wildlife seen, but pleasant 1/2 mile hike ( +1/2 mile to town )

Having hiked this trail constantly for 20+ years, it's as familiar as the face of a lover. It is not difficult and takes me to a place I can look beyond the mountains to where we meet the sea. Sometimes whales, seals, seabirds, eagles, but always different

I hike the Yakutania Point trail system on a regular basis, and highly recommend it. This trail has a bit of everything: a little up, a little down, and quite a bit of fairly flat trail. This trail is basically a 'B' shape. You enter via a footbridge across the Skagway River. If you turn right, you follow the Skagway... More

We had a great walk out to Yakutania point, there are good views of the harbour and if you go a little further round the point you can climb on the rocks and see even further.

About 1 mile, mostly flat, easy hike. Nice views. So if you have a bit of time before your ship leaves, then this is a nice short hike. I got tired of shops, so this was perfect with my kids.

There is a 1 mile trail back to Yakutania Point from Skagway. Ths trail is good and pretty. If you have time and you like to walk, I suggest this beautiful trail and point.

It is a Point very close to downtown Skagway which offer a grat view of the ocean and Taiya Inlet. There is a picknick table few km down the trail for a lunch when the wind from the South is not howling.

I walk this trail practically every time I go to Skagway. It is close, not too long and has beautiful views and a fresh breeze. You can watch the cruise ships come in and out or look for seals.
