The Totem Trail winds through the forest behind the Southeast Alaska Indian Cultural Center. The trail itself is wide and easy, with stately totem poles posted at intervals.

You may want to do a bit of exploring here, as sometimes backtracking along your route will let you see a few more totem poles.
