Against all odds, the iron trail was carved through some of the North's most rugged terrain in 1898.This engineering wonder climbs nearly 3,000 feet over 20 miles of steep grades and cliff-hanging turns. Next, you will experience the historical thrill of the 1898 Gold Rush. This guided tour, complete with colorful characters, provides a unique opportunity to explore a massive Gold Dredge formerly used in the Klondike Gold Fields. After viewing a gold panning exhibition, you can try your hand at gold panning, with gold guaranteed in every pan. The Gold Shack staff will then weigh your gold and fashion a memorable keepsake while you enjoy coffee or tea and cookies. On your return to Skagway, you can either stop for shopping or return directly to the ship.
