Take the wheel of a four-wheel drive Kawasaki "Mule" through the lush forest of the pristine Alaska wilderness! You'll journey along the Takshanuk Mountain Trail on this amazing 6.25-hour adventure.
Enjoy a guided cruise aboard a high-speed catamaran along North America's longest and deepest fjord to Haines, with spectacular views of waterfalls and icy peaks. A short transfer brings you to the Takshanuk ("land of falling waters") trailhead, where you'll hop on your four-wheel-drive vehicle. Marvel at beautiful waterfalls and crystal-clear creeks on your way to meadows at an elevation of 1,500 feet. Spectacular views abound!
On the way down, you will stop at a mountaintop lodge with a warm fire for a tasty lunch. After descending the rest of the trail, enjoy a scenic motor coach ride along Lutak Inlet before cruising back to the ship.
