Yakutania Point

Hikers seeking waterfront camping can access Yakutania Point by crossing the footbridge over the Skagway River near the airport and following trail signs left. This free walk-in campground sits along the shoreline with a fire pit close to the water and a picnic table positioned under trees. The trail includes outhouses and trash cans at the halfway point.

The rocks to the right provide elevated views according to campers, while multiple spots accommodate hammocks throughout the wooded area. Evening hours draw local visitors to the site. For those preferring developed facilities, Pullen Creek and RV Park offers full hookups less than a mile away.

Short hike

Cross the foot bridge over the Skagway River by the airport and follow the signs left. It's an easy trail with a few places to explore and hang out by the water along the way. If you follow it to the Point, you'll pass outhouses and trashcans about half way. There is a picnic table under the trees, then a fire pit close to the shore line. Plenty of places to hang a hammock. For the best views, check out the rocks to the right. Plenty of locals in the evening. Great place to meet people. Pet friendly, as long as your pets are friendly!
