 Enjoy
an exciting raft trip down the Chilkat River through the world famous
Chilkat Bald Eagle Preserve. This exciting adventure takes you through the
site of the world’s largest concentration of Bald Eagles.
Your trip begins with a half hour
Nature tour through the "Valley of the Eagles" along the banks of the Chilkat
River to the Chilkat Bald Eagle Preserve. The preserve is 48,000 acres
dedicated to the preservation of the Bald Eagle Habitat by the state of Alaska.
Your experienced & enthusiastic river guide will take you on your adventure of
discovery through the Alaskan wilderness of the Chilkat Bald Eagle Preserve on
one of our safe inflatable rafts.
Along the way your professional guide will inform and entertain you about the natural history of the area,
Chilkat Indian Heritage, and Alaskan stories. Each fall
thousands of Bald Eagles gather along the Chilkat Valley to feast on late runs
of spawning salmon, however there are numerous summer residents as well and you
will be able to observe them in their natural habitat. Your guide is an
expert in spotting wildlife and you may
observe brown bears, black bears, wolves, trumpeter swans and moose. Don't leave
your camera behind for this adventure!
Be prepared to see the natural wonders of the magnificent Chilkat Valley of
the Eagles with its stunning mountain peaks and icy blue glaciers. The Chilkat
Natives have lived here for thousands of years and you will learn to appreciate
their way of life and their concern to preserve this bountiful river.
