Country: United States
Duration:
03:30 hours
Description
Ride the scenic Klondike Highway over White Pass with photo stops, mountain views, and time to explore the Yukon Suspension Bridge.
Leave Skagway behind and journey into the mountains on a small-group tour along the legendary Klondike Highway with a local, owner-operated guide who lives in Skagway year-round. After meeting near the cruise docks at Centennial Statue Park, travel through coastal rainforest and climb toward the dramatic alpine landscapes of White Pass while hearing stories of the Klondike Gold Rush, frontier life, and the stampeders who once traveled this rugged route to the Yukon.
As the road winds higher into the mountains, the scenery transforms into towering peaks, waterfalls, alpine lakes, and wide-open valleys. Stop along the way for photos at overlooks near the White Pass summit, where sweeping views stretch across the Alaska-Canada borderlands.
Cross into Canada and continue into the Yukon, where the landscape opens into subarctic wilderness shaped by glaciers, rivers, and historic trade routes. Your main stop is the Yukon Suspension Bridge, where you can walk high above the Tutshi River gorge, take panoramic photos, and explore the surrounding area at your own pace.
On the return trip to Skagway, enjoy additional sightseeing stops as weather and road conditions allow. With a relaxed pace, light walking, and a maximum of 20 guests, this experience is ideal for travelers looking for stunning scenery, fascinating local history, and a more personal alternative to large bus excursions.
