The SS Keno is a National Historic Site and one of the last surviving sternwheelers that once plied the Yukon River. Built in 1922, the steamboat carried cargo and passengers until the 1950s. Visitors can explore the restored decks, engine room, and passenger cabins, learning about the vital role these vessels played in the region's development. The ship is dry-docked along the riverbank, offering a tangible link to the Gold Rush era.
