Skagway Yukon Dog Musher Camp and Summer Sled Dog Ride

Drive through historic downtown Skagway along Broadway, lined with Gold Rush-era buildings, shops, and stories from the Klondike era.

Get a comprehensive overview of Skagway as you travel through downtown, residential areas, and key local landmarks. See the White Pass & Yukon Route Railway yard, Skagway River, City Hall, and everyday life beyond the tourist center.

Enjoy views up the White Pass from a bridge over the Skagway River, where the Klondike Highway winds through dramatic mountain scenery.

Rising dramatically nearly 2,000 feet down the mountainside, Pitchfork Falls is one of the most striking waterfalls along the Klondike Highway. It cascades toward the Skagway River and passes beneath the historic bridge.

Visit a working sled dog kennel in the Yukon and meet professional mushers and their teams. Learn how sled dogs are raised, trained, and cared for while gaining insight into life in the North and the traditions of mushing. Enjoy time to interact with the dogs, take photos, and, depending on the season, meet friendly puppies. Then experience a summer dog cart ride as a team of energetic sled dogs pulls you along a scenic trail.

As we return to Skagway, you’ll have the option to be dropped off either in the heart of downtown or back at your ship. Many guests choose to spend some extra time exploring the historic streets, browsing local shops, or grabbing a bite before heading back onboard.

The iconic “Welcome to Alaska” sign is a classic photo stop. Surrounded by mountain scenery, it’s a memorable moment to step out, take a photo, and officially mark your entry into Alaska.
