Yakutania Point & Smuggler's Cove

Yakutania Point

A headland park reached by crossing the river. Forest trails lead to rocky shores with views of the harbor and cruise ships.

Yakutania Point lies across the Skagway River. It can be reached by walking over the pedestrian suspension bridge west of town. Forest trails lead to a rocky headland and a small sandy cove called Smuggler's Cove. Views extend across Lynn Canal, the cruise ships in the harbor and the snowy mountains opposite. Locals come here to walk and picnic. The round trip takes about 1 to 2 hours. The gentle slopes suit visitors who do not want to go far.
