Haines Eagle Preserve Float Adventure & Lynn Fjord Cruise
Watch for Eagles and Wildlife on this spectacular combination of river float trip and
fjord exploration. Your quest begins in North America's deepest fjord where you will
have the chance to see whales and other sea mammals as well as thundering waterfalls
cascading off the towering ice capped mountains. After landing at the historic Fort Seward
Dock in the picturesque fishing village of Haines, your adventure continues up the Alaska
Highway and into the Chilkat Bald Eagle Preserve. There, you meet your naturalist guides and
board heavy-duty 18 foot rafts to float quietly through the heart of the Preserve. The
eagle preserve boasts the largest congregation of Bald Eagles in the world. Eagles,
bears and wolves all frequent the preserve to feed on the plentiful salmon making their way
upstream to their spawning beds. Often moose are spotted crossing the river or feeding in
the ponds of the valley.
