Southeast Alaska is a wild and magical place, visited by over a million tourists during the summer season. And though our small, rugged towns may look charming and quaint, our wilderness is vast and unrelenting. Our forest and sea are often quite different from what people are used to in the lower 48 and other countries. What you know about your own backyard's weather and wilderness may not hold up here in Alaska.To learn more about what to expect for hiking in the Ketchikan area please click on the Introduction to Hiking In Ketchikan below.
