SOUTHEAST ALASKA
Haines
Haines is a popular stop for RVers
traveling between the Yukon and
Alaska, With it’s combination of history,
culture, scenery and adventure, there’s
something for everyone.
Located at the northern end of
Southeast Alaska, Haines sits on the
shores of the northern Lynn Canal,
the deepest, longest fjord in North
America. Haines is surrounded by
mountains and glaciers. Fishing,
rafting, kayaking, boating and guided
nature walks are just some of the
activities available.
Haines retains the character and
charm of small-town Alaska while
still hosting a range of interesting
museums (including the Hammer
Museum, dedicated to preserving
the history of man’s first tool) and
a thriving arts community. You
can see demonstrations by native
carvers and artists at Alaska Indian
Arts, a nonprofit dedicated to the
preservation and continuation of
traditional native craft and culture.

Getting to Haines is an adventure
in itself. Haines is one of the few
communities in Southeast Alaska
connected to both a highway system
and a seaport. The Haines Highway
is one of the prettiest stretches of
highway in the US that parallels some
of the most pristine water and wildlife
habitats with high peaks, glaciers,
rivers and lakes along the entire route.
In 2009 the 40-mile stretch from
Haines to the Canadian border was
designated a National Scenic Byway.
Valley of the Eagles
The American Bald Eagle Foundation
is a natural history museum and
live raptor center dedicated to
celebrating our national bird. With
live bird presentations and an
impressive diorama representing
wildlife of Chilkat Valley, the
Foundation currently houses 11
Raptor Ambassadors, birds such as
eagles, falcons, owls, and hawks
that are trained and used to help
educate visitors about the birds and
encourage conservation efforts.
