JUNEAU ALASKA With more wildlife than people, more miles of trails than roads, and more glaciers than you can see in a day, Juneau is Alaska’s wilderness capital. Juneau is many things: a natural wonder; a wildlife viewing paradise; an outdoor Utopia; a cultural jewel rich in history, art, music, and Native heritage; a shopper’s trove; and a food lover’s dream. It is a mountain city, a coastal city, a college town, and a transportation hub. It’s not just the state capital, it’s the heart of Southeast Alaska. Pretty good for a tiny oasis of civilization in one the largest wilderness areas in the United States. Surrounded by intercoastal waterways, dense rainforest, steep mountainsides, wildflower-filled alpine meadows, and awe-inspiring glaciers - most famously, the Mendenhall Glacier, one of the world’s most easily accessible - Juneau offers every legendary Alaska experience you can think of (even surfing!). This guide and planner will help you make the most of your Juneau adventure. For more in-depth information, visit us at traveljuneau.com.

WILDLIFE VIEWING:
TRAVEL JUNEAU
MICHAEL PENN | JUNEAU EMPIRE FILE
JUNEAU IS WILDLIFE.
HUMPBACK WHALES
Every summer, the humpback fleet descends upon Southeast Alaska to gorge on krill and herring. Naturally, watching these graceful giants feast and frolic is one of Juneau’s most popular activities. Boat tours offer the most reliable viewing experiences, but you can also see humpbacks from shore. Really, anytime you find yourself by the ocean, keep an eye out for spouting.
• Always keep a safe distance. • Dawn and dusk are the best times for viewing. • Don’t let weather stop you; the animals don’t. • Be patient. Even with abundant wildlife, it may take time to spot. TRAVEL JUNEAU
• Use binoculars or a telephoto lens. • When traveling through bear country— especially in thick brush or near salmon streams—make noise (e.g. talking, singing, hand-clapping).

BEARS
In Southeast Alaska, you’ll find black bears and brown bears, aka “grizzlies.” Around Juneau, brown bears live along wild shorelines. The best place to see one: neighboring Admiralty Island, with a grizzly population exceeding 1600—more than the entire Lower 48 combined! Black bears enjoy a forest habitat, which puts them closer to civilization. As such, they can appear all over Juneau; a black bear even walked into a bar, once—no joke! traveljuneau.com

EAGLES

Juneau is eagle paradise: a smorgasbord of spawning salmon with an endless choice of lush, green perches. While you won’t not see an eagle in Juneau, prime viewing spots include Auke Bay Boat Harbor and the land-spit at the mouth of Salmon Creek. Care to guess why eagles hang out there?
ORCAS
Orcas, or “killer whales,” rank among earth’s fiercest predators, known to pick off seals, other whales and even great white sharks. Of course, Juneau’s orcas prefer salmon (who doesn’t?!) and bait fish. While more elusive than humpbacks, orcas are easier to spot; their telltale dorsal fins can grow up to six feet in height. Word travels fast when orcas pop up—especially among tour boat captains.

JUNEAU IS GLACIERS.
MENDENHALL GLACIER
Local Tip
MENDENHALL GLACIER ICE CAVES
While the ice caves along the west side of Mendenhall Glacier are spectacular—a fantasy in deep blue crystal—venturing into glaciers is very dangerous. No established trails lead to the caves. Therefore, we strongly advise against visiting them without a professional guide.
8
Juneau’s Accessible Natural Wonder A quick drive from downtown, Mendenhall Glacier is one of the world’s few “urban” glaciers. “The Glacier,” as locals call it, draws more than 400,000 visitors a year - and for good reason. About half a mile wide at its face and rising 100 feet from the water, Mendenhall Glacier ends at iceberg-strewn Mendenhall Lake. The Mendenhall Glacier Visitor Area encompasses the Visitor Center, Steep Creek Trail, Photo Point Trail, restrooms, bus shelters and viewing pavilions. There is a $5 admission for adults and children under 16 are free. Open from 8 a.m. to 7:30 p.m. daily throughout the summer, the visitor center also offers exhibits and education emphasizing glacial phenomena, ecosystems, and protection of fish and wildlife (keep your eyes peeled for black bears). A flat, well-developed trail leads less than a mile to Nugget Falls, with up-close and personal glacier views and the chance to spot mountain goats on nearby cliffs. Commercial operators offer glacier hiking, biking, rafting, canoe, and kayak trips, plus bus, van, taxi, and shuttle tours. Or go flightseeing by helicopter or fixed-wing plane. Helicopters offer opportunities to land and walk about on the ice; dogsledding is another popular Juneau Icefield activity. traveljuneau.com

TRACY ARM
Where Icebergs Are Born Within a day’s round-trip south of Juneau, a boat ride brings you to Tracy Arm Fjord. Here, sheer granite walls and steep waterfalls meet calm emerald water dotted with some of Alaska’s largest icebergs (a favorite hangout for harbor seals and their pups). But the main attraction: North Sawyer and South Sawyer Glaciers, which actively calve huge chunks of blue ice into the water. Witnessing a calving glacier is, quite literally, an earth-shattering experience. Tracy Arm remains one of Juneau’s most popular excursions for visitors and locals alike.
OTHER JUNEAU GLACIERS
But Wait, There Is More Juneau boasts several other local glaciers, each with its own opportunity for adventure. Lemon Creek Glacier looms over Lemon Creek Valley, easily viewed from turnouts along Egan Drive and accessed via a hiking trail. North of town, a longer, hiking trail leads to Eagle Glacier and a shorter, smoother trail - excellent for hiking, trail running, and mountain biking leads through old-growth forest and along a glacial flood plain to Herbert Glacier. A short boat or floatplane south of Juneau is Taku Glacier, a great place to spot wild black bears and moose.
#DidJuneau? The Juneau Icefield is the fifth-largest ice field in the Western Hemisphere, extending through an area of 1,500 square miles (3,900 square km), ranging 87 miles (140 km) north to south and 47 miles (75 km) east to west. The icefield is the source of many glaciers including the Mendenhall Glacier and the Taku Glacier. The icefield is home to over 40 large valley glaciers and 100 smaller ones. 888-581-2201
Local Tip
GATEWAY TO GLACIER BAY:
A National Treasure The most remarkable thing about the breathtaking shorelines, bays, and fjords of Glacier Bay National Park: when George Vancouver first ventured into Icy Strait in 1794, those shorelines, bays, and fjords were all completely covered by ice. After more than 200 years of thawing, Glacier Bay now offers premier wildlife and glacier viewing. At its mouth, the small town of Gustavus boasts luxury lodges, kayaking, biking, hiking, birding, fishing, and even a golf course. Let Juneau be your gateway to Glacier Bay. Only 33 air miles away, commuter flights provide year-round daily service to and from Gustavus. The Alaska Marine Highway ferry offers multiple weekly stops throughout the year. For information on Glacier Bay National Park & Preserve, visit nps. gov/glba or call (907) 697-2230 (Oct.Apr.) or (907) 697-2627 (May-Sept.).

JUNEAU IS ADVENTURE.
TRAVEL JUNEAU
ON LAND
Local Tip
TAKE ONLY PHOTOS, LEAVE ONLY FOOTPRINTS
Juneau is a prime destination for those seeking a personal connection with nature for visitors and locals alike. Enjoy Juneau’s wilderness, but during your stay, please lessen your impact on this special place by using established paths, not disturbing vegetation or wildlife, and taking special care not to litter.
10
Hiking, Biking, or Just Hanging Out When we say “take a hike,” we mean it. Literally. Here, more than 250 miles of trails - many beginning within city limits - range from fairly flat, paved, or planked nature walks to strenuous uphill treks. Or just stroll along a beach to watch the sunset. Complete Juneau trail information can be found at adventureflow.us/trailguide or alaska.org/destination/juneau/trails.
ON WATER
Kayaking, Rafting, Surfing, and Paddleboarding Juneau’s lakes, rivers, and protected coastal waters not only make for excellent boating, rafting, and kayaking, some outfitters offer surfing and paddleboarding (don’t worry, you wear a wetsuit).
BY AIR
Flightseeing, Ziplining Skim the wilderness in a “bush” plane or helicopter up to the Juneau Icefield for a dog sled ride (and maybe a snowball fight; in the middle of summer, who can resist?). Appreciate the true vastness of our surroundings - and Juneau’s tiny toe-hold at its foot. Or, from a slightly lower but no less thrilling height, speed through old-growth forest on a zipline. We’ve got two.

JUNEAU IS HERITAGE.
#DidJuneau?
FRANK PIERCE | WWW.FRANKLYNNPHOTO.COM
According to some scholars, the Tlingit (“clink-it”), Haida (“high-dah”), and Tsimshian (“sim-shee-an”) peoples have lived in Southeast Alaska since 8000 B.C.E. Language differs, but the three share similar art, ceremonies, beliefs, and legends, shaped by the land and sea. By incorporating traditional customs and beliefs into contemporary lifestyles, modern-day Southeast Alaska Natives preserve the gift of cultural heritage for future generations.
12
NATIVE HERITAGE
From traditional music and dance to visual art - generally described as “formline” or “totemic” art - Juneau brims with opportunities to experience Native culture. While you’re downtown, plan to visit Sealaska Heritage/Walter Soboleff Center, a state-of-the-art performance, exhibition, research and living history center that focuses on the rich language and culture of Southeast Alaska. In 2016, Sealaska Heritage Institute held Celebration, a major culture festival hosted in Juneau every even year. The institute, a Native non-profit serving the Tlingit, Haida, and Tsimshian of Southeast Alaska, first held the event in 1982. At the time, Native people were worried that young people weren’t learning their ancient songs and dances and that the culture was slipping away. The event (which sparked a movement across the region and renaissance of Native culture) was held to celebrate Southeast Alaska cultures and to prompt people to learn about their heritage. Today, Celebration is one of the largest events in the state, drawing thousands of people to the four-day festival, which features dance performances, a Juried Art Show and Competition, a Native art market, a Toddler Regalia Review, a parade, food contests, workshops and lectures. Visit TravelJuneau.com for the latest information about Celebration 2018.

JUNEAU IS HISTORY.
#DidJuneau? Long before Juneau was Juneau it was Dzántik’i Héeni (“Base of the Flounder’s River”), a favorite Tlingit fishing spot dating back millennia.
In 1880 Richard Harris and Joe Juneau, guided by Tlingit Chief Kowee, found gold at the mouth of Gold Creek, Alaska’s first major strike. The rush was on. Soon came miners, trading posts, saloons, and missionaries, forming a small town called Harrisburg - that is, before Joe Juneau successfully campaigned to change the name in 1881 (according to legend, by buying a few rounds the night before the vote). While fishing, transportation, and milling all played economic roles, for the next 60 years, Juneau was a gold town. Until 1944, when WWII forced their final closure, Juneau’s mines produced nearly $150 million worth of gold ($7 billion today!). Government gradually replaced mining as the primary industry, followed by tourism. Drawn by Native heritage, prospector history, and incredible scenery, vacationers have been traveling to Juneau since the early 1900s. More than a hundred years later, it remains a world-renowned visitor destination.
NOEHILL.COM
Historic Downtown Juneau is one of the few towns in Southeast Alaska that didn’t burn down at some point in its history. As a result, many original buildings still stand, from 100-year-old hotels, saloons, colorful Victorian houses, and historic churches like St. Nicholas Russian Orthodox Church, completed in 1894. Look for blue threesided signposts describing highlights of the immediate area.

JUNEAU IS CULTURE.
ARTS
Juneau is a cultural center at the edge of wilderness. Where mountains meet the sea, contemporary meets traditional to create a truly unique arts scene. Anchored by the Juneau Arts & Humanities Council (JAHC), the capital city boasts two music festivals, several theater companies - including the nationally-recognized professional playhouse, Perseverance Theatre - two opera companies, a dance company, a symphony, an art-house cinema, and more than 75 published authors ‌ plus countless artists, craftspeople, and musicians. Not bad for a town of 32,000. Find a complete arts calendar at jahc.org.
Glimpse into Juneau’s past, culture, and art. Juneau-Douglas City Museum (Main and Fourth St.) focuses on local history; outside sit two totem poles marking the site of the official raising of the 49-star flag designating Alaska as a state in 1959. In an old mine at the end of Basin Road, Last Chance Mining Museum features mining tools, machines and other antiques. A comprehensive collection of Alaska Native objects and other historical artifacts can be found at the new State Library Archives and Museum Building (SLAM).

SHOPPING
From Russian dolls to artisan jewelry, handmade fudge to thrift shops, shopping in Juneau is an adventure itself. A keen shopper can find Native handicrafts, local art, collectibles, clothing, shoes, books, and many bath and beauty products made from local botanicals and glacial silt. Whatever you choose, take home an authentic keepsake and revisit Juneau whenever you like. 14

JUNEAU IS FISHING.
TRAVEL JUNEAU
Juneau offers some of the most diverse and incredible sportfishing around. Here, you can flyfish in a roadside creek, cast from the shore, or charter a boat to drop a line for a plump salmon or gigantic halibut.
Local Tip The locals have a saying, “Friends don’t let friends eat farmed salmon.” Alaskans know that fresh, wild caught Alaskan salmon tastes dramatically different from those raised in pens on aquafarms. #AskForAlaska
No wonder so many anglers get hooked on Juneau. Of course, we have salmon and halibut, but we also have lingcod, rockfish, steelhead, rainbow and cutthroat trout, and Dolly Varden (that’s “Arctic Char” in the Lower 48). Limited time? Hire a local guide - they know where fish are biting and what they’re hitting. Fly-in fishing, wilderness lodges, or even just letting out some line at one of our beautiful beaches - they’re all once-in-a-lifetime experiences (and here, you can experience them all). Do-it-yourselfers can try their luck at the public fishing pier next to Macaulay Salmon Hatchery, or the outlet of Sheep Creek (4 miles north and south of the cruise ships, respectively), or Montana Creek off Kaxdigoowu Heen Dei (Brotherhood Bridge) Trail (9 miles north of downtown. Prefer fishing of a more competitive nature? Try your hand at a Fishing Derby. Juneau hosts two - the Golden North Salmon Derby (goldennorthsalmonderby.com) and the Spring King Derby (springkingderby.org).

JUNEAU IS ALWAYS IN SEASON.
There’s no winter like an Alaskan winter, especially in Juneau. Diverse terrain and healthy snowfall make it the best-kept secret in snow sports. In fact, in 2013, Juneau was voted second-best U.S. ski town by Powder magazine. Community owned and operated Eaglecrest Ski Area offers 640 acres of groomed open-treed slopes, extensive backcountry, a terrain park, and spectacular views. For untouched powder, book a guided heliski excursion to mountains surrounding the Juneau Icefield. For the Nordic skier, Juneau’s many hiking trails transform into cross-country routes, few more popular than Mendenhall Lake - imagine skiing across a frozen lake, studded with icebergs, toward a sparkling glacier.

When you’re done for the day, there’s no better place to warm up than one of Juneau’s many restaurants, bars, and cafés. We’ll save you a seat by the fire.

ALASKA AIRLINES
JUNEAU IS CLOSER THAN YOU THINK.
Flying to Juneau is as easy and affordable as flying to any popular vacation spot. It’s less than a 2.5-hour flight from Seattle. Alaska Airlines offers daily jet service to Juneau from both Seattle and Anchorage, connecting to other cities in Southeast Alaska. Delta offers seasonal, non-stop service between Seattle and Juneau. Commuter air carriers and charters serve smaller surrounding communities. You could conceivably eat breakfast at home and be in the middle of Alaskan wilderness by lunchtime … well, late lunch.
BY SEA
A popular port of call for cruise lines large and small, Juneau is also a major stop on the Alaska Marine Highway System (AMHS), the state-owned ferry system providing year-round transportation to more than 30 coastal communities. A trip on the ferry is anything but typical. Sail past spectacular scenery and soak in the local culture of port communities and fellow passengers (no better place to meet locals than on the ferry). The AMHS is an official AllAmerican Road, U.S. Department of Transportation’s highest honor. Visit ferryalaska.com for more information.

GETTING AROUND TOWN
It’s tough to get lost in Juneau - our one main road extends less than 50 miles, and we’re bounded by mountains and water. Most attractions are easily reached via public or private transportation services; explore at your own pace by renting a car. Don’t want to worry about logistics and just enjoy the view? Bus tours, taxis, and the local public bus system, Capital Transit, are all affordable options.

JUNEAU IN A DAY
In town for just a few hours or all day, there’s plenty to enjoy during a quick stay. Explore historic downtown, ride the Goldbelt Mt. Roberts Tramway, take in a museum, check out the salmon hatchery, go shopping, taste fresh local seafood, tour a botanical garden, or sample award-winning craft beer at the Alaskan Brewing Company. Mendenhall Glacier is a must-see and is only 13 miles from downtown. Other popular attractions and activities easily tackled in several hours: whale watching, flightseeing, sportfishing, hiking, biking, and kayaking. Juneau will fill your day - and then some.

JUNEAU IN A WEEKEND
Unpack your bags and go adventuring. Hit spots you missed the first day, obviously, but here’s your opportunity to discover Juneau in more depth. Try a helicopter flight to the Juneau Icefield. Follow it up with a floatplane trip to remote Taku Glacier Lodge, where you can dine on salmon while viewing yet another glacier (and bears, most likely). Spend a full- or half-day trying to land the “Big One” aboard a fishing charter charters also make for spectacular whale and sea lion viewing. Or, rent a car and drive “out-the-road,” stopping at one of many scenic turnouts, beaches, and hiking trails along our 48 miles of road heading out of town.

JUNEAU IN A WEEK

A week allows for a simultaneously more relaxed and more intense experience. Take a leisurely approach to all the previously mentioned activities, but break them up with fullday excursions to truly immerse yourself in wild Southeast Alaska. Departing downtown in the morning and returning by dinner, Tracy Arm Fjord tours head into the narrow granite Tracy Arm Fjord, culminating at the actively calving Twin Sawyer Glaciers. For incredible wild brown bear viewing, licensed guide packages whisk you by floatplane to Pack Creek, on nearby Admiralty Island, where you can observe brown bears feasting on salmon. Take an early-morning commuter flight to catch the day-cruise into famous Glacier Bay and spend the night at a lodge or bed & breakfast in the charming community of Gustavus. When you get back to Juneau, try a longer hike, or go kayaking, biking, ziplining, or just hang out over great local seafood and a pint of Alaskan beer, toasting all your great Juneau memories.

COMMON QUESTIONS
(About an uncommon place.)
Q: What time is it? A: Juneau falls in the Alaska Time Zone (AKST), one hour earlier than Pacific
Q: Do I need a passport? A: Only if you plan to cross into Canada.
Time, and we follow Daylight Savings.
Q:
Q: What should I bring to wear? A: When it comes to Juneau weather, prepare for the worst and hope for the
best. Even the warmest sunny day can turn cool and rainy (and vice versa). Layers are key: wear a light short or long sleeved shirt and a pull-over or sweater for warmth, with a waterproof outer layer. Layers should be easy to remove depending on changes in weather and activity. Strongly recommended: sturdy waterproof footwear. Q: How many hours of daylight do you have? A: On our longest day, June 21, Juneau experiences 18 hours and 18 minutes
of daylight; our shortest day, Dec. 21: 6 hours, 21 minutes. The “Land of the Midnight Sun” - where it never sets in summer (or rises in winter) - begins north of the Arctic Circle, at around 66 degrees latitude. Juneau falls just above 58 North Latitude. Q: Where can I exchange currency? A: ATMs are widely available throughout Juneau to withdraw U.S. dollars from
and will accept major credit cards. You may want to check with your financial institution for associated fees. Visitors can also exchange money aboard ships and at several downtown businesses and banks.
What kind of medical facilities, banking, accommodations, and other essential traveler services do you have? A: We’re remote, but not that remote. In fact, Juneau is the hub of Southeast
Alaska. We’re served by Bartlett Regional Hospital, as well as multiple bank branches, supermarkets, pharmacies, hotels, and pretty much any other amenity you’d find in a comparably-sized American city. UPS, Federal Express, and the U.S. Postal Service all provide rapid parcel delivery into and out of Juneau. And your cell phone should work just fine here… surprisingly well, actually. Q: Do I need a fishing license? A: Yes, if you are 16 or older. Visit the Alaska Department of Fish and Game
website (adfg.alaska.gov), for information regarding licenses, permits, and regulations (plus updates on current conditions). You can purchase licenses and permits online or by mail directly from Fish and Game; many local businesses also sell them. Guided packages will often include licenses. Q: How rainy is it, really? A: Juneau averages 62” of rain annually - that’s two inches less than Miami!
Of course, we also get 85” of snow (85” more than Miami). With precipitation falling on average 230 days a year, expect rain at some point during your stay we call it “liquid sunshine.” Typically, May-July comprises Juneau’s driest period.
Meet the Neighbors!
Juneau is a great jumping off point to visit several other small coastal communities. 4 Haines and/or Skagway can both be reached by 4-6 hour ferry or 40-minute commuter flight. Haines boasts historic Fort Seward and the Chilkat Valley Bald Eagle Preserve; Skagway: the scenic White Pass & Yukon Railroad train. # Petersburg, a fishing community 100 miles south, known as “Little Norway,” offers a delightful atmosphere in a spectacular setting. 3 Gustavus, 33 air miles away, is the Gateway to Glacier Bay. Other highlights: whale watching, kayaking, and golfing at Southeast Alaska’s legendary golf course. $ Wrangell, a few miles east of Petersburg, is the starting point for tours to the bear-watching observatory at Anan Creek and river trips up the mighty Stikine River. 888-581-2201
