Chilkat Bald Eagle Preserve & Raft Adventure

Chilkat Bald Eagle Preserve & Raft Adventure

As you cruise across Lynn Canal on our Exclusive Lynn Fjord Fast Shuttle, high-speed boat; watch for marine life including whales, sea lions and eagles along this rugged coastline. Upon arrival in Haines, you'll enjoy a nature tour through the "Valley of the Eagles" to the Chilkat Bald Eagle Preserve where you'll meet your river guide. The Chilkat Bald Eagle Preserve is 48,000 acres dedicated to the preservation of the Bald Eagle Habitat by the state of Alaska.

Your adventure of discovery through the Alaskan wilderness of the Chilkat Bald Eagle Preserve continues as you are guided on one of our safe inflatable rafts. Be prepared to see the natural wonders of the magnificent Chilkat Valley of the Eagles with its stunning mountain peaks and icy blue glaciers. The Chilkat Natives have lived here for thousands of years and you will learn to appreciate their way of life and their concern to preserve this bountiful river valley.

You will be on the river for approximately 1.5 hours and will float by areas where the beavers are active, past eagles' nests, past a Tlingit Native Village and into the heart of the Chilkat Bald Eagle Preserve. The river is framed by two mountain ranges, very beautiful and quiet; no motorized tours are allowed on that portion of the river.

Your guide is an expert in spotting wildlife and you may observe brown bears, black bears, wolves, trumpeter swans or moose. Don't leave your camera behind for this adventure! The minimum age for children to participate is 7 years old.
