Located on the traditional lands of the Chilkoot Tlingit people, Shgagwei means "place with solid core trees" for the driftwood that washes ashore. Here, history, beauty and adventure meet in Alaska's first incorporated city.

Home of outstanding attractions, outdoor activities, shopping, entertainment, food, beverage and museums, the people of Skagway invite you create your own amazing experience! Step back in time as you explore the Klondike Gold Rush National Historical Park along Broadway, lined with wooden boardwalks and restored buildings, downtown looks much as it did 125 years ago.
