It contains some of North America’s grandest scenery and wildest places. Within relatively short distances, the route covers a wide range of eco-systems- from boreal forest to coastal rainforest to immense ice fields. Starting in Skagway, you'll travel to Whitehorse, Haines Junction (2-night option) and Haines. You will drive the scenic South Klondike Highway, the famous Alaska Highway, and the Haines Road.

You may choose to explore a museum, visit the Klondike sternwheeler, view the world's longest wooden fish ladder, soak in Takhini Hot Springs or visit the Yukon Wildlife Preserve. While staying one or two nights in Haines Junction, there's time to enjoy a flight sees over Kluane National Park, ($285ea option), visit a traditional Native fishing village, and/or take hikes into Kluane National Park, (short or long, it’s up to you). Your last night, you will stay near the Bald Eagle Capital of the World, (Haines), with a possible viewing of Grizzlies from the deck of your room, as they dine on salmon. Eagle sightings reach their peak in mid-November, when up to 4,000 bald eagles feast on the annual salmon run; therefore, a trip to Haines in late October is my favorite!
