Juneau is a land of beautiful extremes - ice glaciers, mountains, forests and ocean waters.

Located in Alaska's Panhandle, Juneau is a two-hour flight from Seattle and a world away from the hustle-and-bustle of everyday life. Its scenic beauty has made Juneau one of the top cruise ship destinations in the world.

Because water on one side and mountains on the other surround Juneau, the best way to get a first look at the city is by tram. The Mount Roberts Tramway takes visitors 2,000 feet up the mountainside to observation decks and hiking trails.
