Historic Gold Panning Adventure & Salmon Bake

Overview

Spend your day in Juneau port panning for gold and indulging in a fresh Alaskan salmon bake. After a brief city tour of Juneau, make your way with a guide up to Gold Creek and Last Chance Basin for an adventure in gold panning. When you’ve built up an appetite, head to a traditional all-you-can-eat salmon bake. Take a short stroll along a natural salmon-spawning creek to the entrance of the Wagner Mine at beautiful Salmon Creek Falls where you can pan for gold, see mining relics, and look for salmon. Have fun roasting marshmallows over a campfire and feel free to take photos at our interactive, gold rush mural. You’re also encouraged to visit the Trading Post to purchase a souvenir and other mementos.

I loved the guides that helped us, they were funny and quite knowledgable about gold panning and the history of it as well as the place where we panned from. 100% would go again and would highly recommend! I can't wait to go back!

We really enjoyed the panning for gold and the salmon bake. Scenery was beautiful, water was awesome. Staff were great and helpful. Our little 2 yr old grandson had a blast panning for gold. Don't miss this for a great time with the family set in a beautiful setting.

This was a true Alaskan adventure, from the zany bus driver/gold panning instructor, to the authentic gold panning experience along an overflowing Gold Creek, to the highly organized and delicious salmon bake, complete with an amazing selection of side dishes, desserts, even marshmallows for roasting! The highlight for me was a short walk from the salmon bake to the foot of a waterfall with hundreds of salmon attempting to jump the falls to reach their birthplace and spawning grounds.
