Hello! Does the trail warn you of any bear encounters? I saw one video here on YT where he hiked Mt. Roberts and he encountered a bear so it was smart of him to bring a bear spray. Very nice perspective of the hike btw. Thanks!
Hi. The parking area has warnings. It's kind of a given to always be aware that there might be bears anywhere in Alaska. Thanks for watching. Happy hiking!
If we were to take the team to the top, is this the trail we would take back down into town? If so, it doesn't appear to be dangerous. Is that a fair assumption? (Looks fun but don't want to die. Lol.)
No, it isn’t dangerous, just moderately steep for a fair amount of it, and a couple rooty areas. The trail continues much further to the ridges above the tram & Roberts peak, which can be a different story, but mostly still safe. Highly recommend hiking at least a little bit above the tram if you ride it to the top - not very far for great views!
Thank you! This was very helpful!
Thanks for watching. Happy travels!
I’ve hiked it! Lots of fun.
Yes. Great trail. Bring your bear spray. 😲
Nice video. What month of the year was this?
Thanks so much. This was in May. Happy travels!
I'm moving to Juneau this winter. I'm a former Marine in search of peace. I think I'll find it there.
Wonderful places to hike all around Juneau. I wish you a happy relocation! Thanks for watching.
Thank you for the video! Using this to convince my family to hike it! :)
Thanks for watching. I definitely want to get back and do a longer route but this was fantastic for a quick workout with nice views. Happy travels!

How would i find the trail head to hike down or up?
You walk through town and start up the hill through the neighborhoods and you can find signange to the trailhead. Thanks for watching. Happy hiking!
Can I walk from my cruise ship to this trail?
You definitely can. It's not close, but an avid hiker can do it easily.

Indeed, this is the trail. You can hike up, tram down -- or vice versa, as you mention.
