Mount Roberts Tramway, 490 South Franklin St., ☎ (888)820-2628 (mail.mrt@goldbelt.com, fax: (907)-463-5095), [15]. May-Sept: M 12PM-9PM, Tu-Th 8AM-9PM, F 9AM or 1 PM-9PM, Sa-Su 9AM-9PM. There is a tram that runs from the docks in downtown Juneau up Mount Roberts, one of the peaks overlooking the city. At the top is the Mount Roberts Nature Center which features a captive eagle (not as impressive as seeing them from a distance in the wild) and some not-too-difficult scenic hiking trails with interpretive information. The more adventurous hiker can branch off from these trails and continue upward to the summit, where snowfields can be found even in the warmth of summer. It's difficult going in places, but provides some stunning views of the channel and city far below. If you don't want to pay $27 to ride up the tram, you can also hike the whole mountain. The trailhead starts at the end of 6th street and takes about an hour to climb up to the top of the tram. A one way tram ride down the mountain costs $5. $27 adults, $13.50 children, 5 and under free.
