Skagway

The best time to visit Skagway is during the summer months, from May to September. The weather is generally mild, and the days are long, providing ample time for outdoor activities. This is also the peak season for cruise ships, so be prepared for larger crowds.

Must-do activities in Skagway include riding the White Pass & Yukon Route railway, exploring the historic district, hiking the Chilkoot Trail (or a portion of it), and taking a boat tour to see glaciers and wildlife. Consider a visit to the Skagway Museum and Archives to learn more about the town's history.

Skagway is primarily accessible by cruise ship or ferry. It also has a small airport (SGY) that serves limited flights. Driving to Skagway is possible, but it involves a long journey through Canada, and the roads can be challenging, especially in winter.
