About Skagway
Skagway is a former Klondike gold rush town at the head of Alaska's Lynn Canal, with wooden boardwalks, a mountain railway and the Chilkoot Trail.
Skagway lies at the northern end of the Inside Passage, in a narrow valley of steep mountains at the head of Lynn Canal. In 1897 and 1898 it was the main entry point for tens of thousands of gold seekers heading to the Klondike, who struggled over the mountains to the goldfields of the Yukon. Its historic main street, preserved as part of Klondike Gold Rush National Historical Park, keeps its wooden false-front buildings and boardwalks.
