History
Sitka sits on ancestral Tlingit lands and was the administrative center of Russian America in the 19th century; the town’s historic sites reflect both Indigenous and Russian-era influences.
Conservation
Protect intertidal zones and wildlife by keeping distance, packing out trash, and using established routes; quiet viewing reduces stress on sensitive species.

Watch the tides
Low tide exposes tidepools and easier walking along some beaches but can leave soft sand—plan rides around tide charts.
Layer for sudden rain
Bring a lightweight waterproof layer; coastal squalls are frequent even on warm days.
Carry wildlife distance
Use binoculars or a zoom lens and keep at least 100 yards from marine mammals and nesting birds to avoid disturbance.
Charge and lock
Bring a charged phone and use the provided lock when visiting sites; cell service can be spotty on side trails.
Helmet
Provided by the operator but bring your own if you prefer a custom fit.

Lightweight rain protection for coastal squalls and drizzle.

Sturdy shoes
