Canoeing, kayaking, and rafting are available on the Stikine River and other rivers, streams, and ocean waterways. Cross-country skiing and snowshoeing are options during the snow season.

Mountain biking is allowed outside of designated wilderness areas. One may also fish along countless lakes, streams, and rivers. Hunting is permitted in season.
