Drive through glaciers, snowy mountaintops, marvellous valleys with moose and bald eagles. We are sure that the Haines Highway in Yukon, Canada, will be one of the best parts of your journey!

Itinerary

1 ° day

Anchorage – Denali Nat. Park

382

Your car tour in Alaska starts today. Leave Anchorage behind, head north and get ready for a series of breath-taking landscapes: lakes, glaciers and mountains will keep you company all the way to the Denali National Park. This is the primary national park in Alaska, dominated by Mount McKinley (6194m), the highest mountain in North America.

2 ° day

Denali Nat. Park

A day reserved for a visit to this untouched nature reserve which offers an incredible variety of wild animals and famous also as the place where Christopher McCandless spent his last days. And who was he? Well, the protagonist of Sean Penn's movie Into the Wild!

3 ° day

Denali Nat. Park - Fairbanks

200

Today we head further up north, the road isn’t very long and it’s quite beautiful…keep your camera handy! Fairbanks is the second-largest city in Alaska and has less than 40.000 inhabitants, but it is definitely a unique little town, and if you happen to visit between late May and mid-July, you can experience sunlight at midnight!

4 ° day

Fairbanks - Tok

327

From Fairbanks, you move eastward until you reach a little town of Tok (1500 residents). It is a gracious little town famous as the capital of dog sled tours and as a paradise for those who love outdoor activities: hiking, walks, bird watching, fishing and many more.

5 ° day

Tok – Dawson City

300

Today you are entering Canada, as there are only 300km between Tok and Dawson City, a small town in the Canadian Yukon. The road is called Top of the World Highway and you can probably imagine why. This charming town is very interesting thanks to an unusual culture and fun atmosphere.

6 ° day

Dawson City

Today you are in Yukon, or in Klondike, to be precise, the region that once was the gold prospector's heaven. In the nearby Dawson there were over 30,000 of them. Then one day Gold finished and in the 1980s the town was abandoned, but new roads gave rise to a new tourist boom that still continues thanks to the beauty of this town and its surroundings.

7 ° day

Dawson City – Whitehorse

535

Today you have a lot of miles to do but the scenery will make it worth it. The Alaska Highway is a magnificent and legendary road that in the winter becomes a single strip of ice. Whitehorse is the capital of Yukon and it will do as a great spot for a break on your way.

8 ° day

Whitehorse – Skagway - Haines

184

Again today you are enjoying a very scenic road: you will drive around lake Emerald and the Carcross desert. After the border you are in the USA again and we recommend a stop in Skagway, a gracious little town at the top of a fjord. Get on board of a ferry for Haines, where you will arrive after an hour and a half.

9 ° day

Haines – Haines Junctions

238

Haines is the adventure capital of Alaska and the perfect colorful base for exploring the Southeast region. The trip will lead you to Canada again, all the way to Haines Junction in approximately three hours, but during the trip you absolutely have to make a stop at the Kluane National Park, a nature reserve that will take your breath away with its glaciers reflecting in the lakes.

10 ° day

Haines Junctions - Tok

467

Today you are finding yourself again on the famous Alaska Highway and you are reentering the USA along the Kluane lake, until you reach Tok again where you have already been a few days ago, thus completing the circle.

11 ° day

Tok – Wasilla

465

Mountains and forests will accompany you all the way to Glenallen, where you can take the Glenn Highway up to Palmer/Wasilla, following the river Matanuska, which is great for rafting.

12 ° day

Wasilla – Seward

270

A magnificent road to the south towards Anchorage and then further down to Seward. You will pass by the Portage glacier and we recommend you make a short stop at the old gold prospectors' village of Hope. Continue to Seward are, a scenic little town in the Kenai Peninsula.

13 ° day

Seward - Anchorage

200

Back to Anchorage and a day off to enjoy this beautiful city or to take a cruise to the Kenai Fjords National Park.
