Weather

Haines embraces the four seasons so in the summer expect rain but hope for sun at some point during your stay and in the winter, you will see snow, enough to get the winter toys out. Our summer has long daylight hours, but our winters are dark. Regardless of the season, having layers and waterproof clothing and footwear is essential, as Haines can experience unpredictable weather changes. It's important to be flexible and adapt to the conditions during your stay to make the most of your visit.
