Review & FAQ:

Once a Russian-built settlement along the shore of Starrigavan Bay, the Old Sitka State Historical Park covers 212 acres, 7 miles north of the town of Sitka. These days, visitors come to the park to enjoy outdoor activities like hiking, fishing, boating and wildlife watching. There is a public boat launch and dock which allows you to reach the ocean waters north of Sitka which opens up a wide variety of sports fishing opportunities. Those who prefer to stay on land can explore a historic home and 2 short hiking trails called the Forest Muskegs Trail (1.25 miles) and the Mosquito Cove Trail (1.5 miles).
