Sitka is Beautiful

The natural beauty of Sitka is overwhelmingly. The small town is situated between a mountain range (known as the Sisters) and the sea. The beauty is rugged and wild. For hikers, hunters, fishermen, and climbers, it is an escape from the bustle of the rest of the world. A remote place full of raw beauty, untouched by the modern world.

Sitka is Quaint

Not many towns are as quaint and friendly as Sitka. It has been settled for thousands of years: first, by the Tlingit Indians, and then by the Russians and Americans. The culture is tangible. The town sits on the harbor, and the buildings are built with flat fronts, as if they are straight form the Wild West, lending it an old-fashioned feel.
