Key Trail Points

From the trailhead in Dyea on the Taiya River:

1.6 miles to the Old Logging Road junction

4.8 miles to Finnegan′s Point

7.5 miles to the Canyon City campground

8.2 miles to Canyon City

16.4 miles to return to the trailhead in Dyea

DIRECTIONS TO TRAILHEAD AND TRAIL ROUTE

Direct flights may be taken to Skagway or Whitehorse, Yukon, but these flights are typically expensive. It is less costly to fly to Juneau and book a ferry to Skagway. From Skagway a taxi or shuttle must be arranged to carry you 8.5 miles on the Dyea Road to the trailhead. The trailhead is located just before Dyea Road crosses Taiya River.

Chilkoot Trail leads north from the trailhead, sometimes on level ground and sometimes climbing sharply to skirt river cliffs. Take the trail north to Finnegan’s Point, Canyon City, and return. There are no other trails or trail junctions to cause confusion.
