Alaska Haines parking advice!!

[@advanturing]

Hi OB team - we are from New Zealand and currently on an Overland trip through USA currently in Alaska. We are going out on a boat trip in Aug and looking for somewhere safe to park our rig in Haines while we are out on the water. Does anyone here know of any good options in town that you'd recommend? Many thanks, Nick

How long of a trip? If its just a day or so there is a lot near the AMH Ferry dock. Are you going over to Skagway? Touristy but the train ride is amazing! Actually now that I think about it, Skagway has a nice RV park with hookup and non hookup stalls. It's like 5 hours by car from Haines, but an hour closer to Juneau on the AMH, daily service in the summer.

Thanks - it's for about a week

That could be a little trickier. Haines is tiny and there's not a lot of parking in general, but maybe down by Ft. Seward?

Wish I was traveling with you! Love Alaska! Spent a year and a half on Kodiak island (unfortunately, too far away to give you advice). However, you have hit a must see when visiting the states, especially for overlanding! Enjoy!
