Easy activity

Be sure to read the Special Notes further down this page for important requirements and restriction.

The large picture windows of your minibus afford spectacular views as you travel through historic Skagway, and along the Klondike Highway to the West White Pass summit in the St. Elias Mountains. Driving along the Klondike Highway, you travel one of North America's most scenic mountain roads, paralleling the historic White Pass railroad into the interior. The past comes alive as your guide imparts a century's worth of White Pass stories and identifies numerous glaciers and peaks.

There are plenty of sights along the way, including Dead Horse Trail, the old Brackett Wagon Road, Pitchfork Falls and Moore Bridge. Thrilling views from every angle await when you reach the summit at a lofty of 3,290 feet. The pristine air invigorates you and the vast silence is broken only by the sound of the wind blowing across the moonscape of rock and foliage.
