Juneau Alaska

Juneau is the central hub for Southeast Alaska and Alaska's infamous Inside Passage. While in Southeast Alaska you will want to see as many of the communities as you possibly can, but you will always find yourself back in Juneau.

Juneau is the Capital of Alaska and it also has the unique distinction of being the only State Capital where it is not possible to drive in or out of the city. Air or water transportation are the only options.

The Alaska Marine Highway ferry terminal is located in Auke Bay. Auke Bay is 13 miles outside the City of Juneau. Most major lodging facilities offer a free shuttle to and from the ferry terminal. Be sure to inquire when making lodging reservations.

A great way to start out your visit to Juneau would be to visit the Alaska State Museum. From Juneau, a number of impressive glaciers can be reached by auto or by trail. The best known is the Mendenhall Glacier. Don't miss this experience while visiting Juneau.

The most memorable thing about Juneau for many people is the rich variety of hiking trails. There are hikes to suit all abilities, ages and aspirations, but if you are about setting out alone, contact the Juneau Parks & Recreation division Telephone 907-586-5226, which organizes hikes for groups and families a few days a week.
