Skagway, Alaska Cruise Tour Shore Excursion (cont)
The National Park Service honors Skagway's history with Klondike Gold Rush National Historical Park. It's the country's only international historical park, having units in Skagway, Seattle, British Columbia and Yukon Territory. The Skagway portion includes a six-block area downtown and 17 miles of the 33-mile Chilkoot Trail.
Skagway's most famous building, perhaps, is the two-story Arctic Brotherhood Hall. This driftwood-decorated frame building was the home of a fraternal group founded by gold seekers on their way to the Klondike. The building of "Camp Skagway No. 1" was erected in 1899, and the facade was put up the next year.
Skagway's history and spectacular natural setting combine to create unparalleled sightseeing and recreation opportunities. Poke around on your own, or select from a variety of commercial tours. Either way, you will be amply rewarded with the sights and activities in and around Skagway.
