Hike the Chilkoot Trail - a tranquil place of incredible beauty with rain forest, streams teeming with spawning salmon and birds, animals, wild flowers and edible berries. The trail brings you to the banks of the Taiya River, where your 35-minute float trip (with no whitewater) begins. The ride culminates at the tidal estuary where the forest gives way to fields of beach greens and wild iris. The granite walls of the fjord rise up steeply, becoming snowcapped peaks serrated by hanging glaciers. Enjoy a riverside snack before returning to your ship. Note: Participants must be at least 7 years of age, in good physical condition and able to hike to 700 feet in elevation (2 miles). We recommend you dress in layers. Ponchos and boots are provided. The float trip has no white water and can be enjoyed by anyone. For more details about this tour please visit: http://hikeandfloat.com/ncl.html
