One of the most popular sites in Ketchikan is the Saxman Totem Village. This is Alaska's only totem park with 29 authentic totems carved by Tlingit and Haida natives. The poles were moved here from the original site in the 1930's and have been restored by native carvers. To truly appreciate the unique and artesian qualities, a visit to Saxman is a must when in Ketchikan.

The next part of your journey will continue on to Herring Bay, a quaint area that takes you far away from the crowds and people. A small inlet cove that will allow sites and sounds of the beautiful wildlife that only Ketchikan can offer. During Salmon season, Black Bears, Eagles, Herons and Seals are often spotted in this area. Be sure to keep your eyes wandering and your cameras ready!

Your last stop of the day will include a visit to Rainbow Falls. Immerse yourself in the view of a 100 foot waterfall surrounded by a rainforest. This hidden treasure is well known by the locals, but not the tourists.
