Find Businesses and Services in Haines, Alaska

Haines is everything you dreamed Alaska would be – Find yourself submerged in pristine beauty surrounded by abundant wildlife and endless opportunities for outdoor adventure while soaking up the surroundings with experiences from extreme adventure to simple pleasures at a leisurely pace. Located on the shores of the Lynn Canal, the longest, deepest fjord in North America, and home to the first permanent army post in Alaska, Fort William H. Seward, Haines is framed with snow-capped mountains while boasting the best tours and unique museums in Southeast Alaska. Haines is a central point on the unique Golden Circle Route – take a drive through the history and culture of the Gold Rush Era while you feast your eyes on 350 miles of the incredible scenery.<br>

The first people to call the Chilkat Valley home were Tlingit Indians. Originally called “Dei-Shu” or “End of the Trail,” Haines is home of the Chilkat Indians whose mother village is Klukwan, located 22 miles north of Haines. Klukwan is recognized as the earliest of the Chilkat villages and contains many reminders of its rich past. Now the Haines Highway into Canada, and previously the Dalton trail used by gold-seekers, the Tlingit trade route to the interior was dubbed the ‘grease trail’ because the most important item carried was oil extracted from the eulachon fish. Due to the bountiful resources of the area, Tlingits could spend less time on survival and more on developing other skills. Tlingits were the first settlers in the Chilkat Valley, and their traditions still flourish today.
