Day 1 : Seattle - Arrival
Welcome to the beautiful city of Seattle, Washington. Take some time to explore the renowned Seattle waterfront, indulge in a ferry ride on Elliot Bay, visit iconic landmarks like the Space Needle, or immerse yourself in the lively atmosphere of Pike's Place Market. We recommend arriving a day early to adjust to the time difference and fully experience the local charm. Meet your guide team and fellow riders over a delightful dinner at a local landmark restaurant.
Day 2 : Seattle - Winthrop
Today, we pick up our H-D Pan Americas and bid farewell to Seattle. We embark on an exhilarating ride through the captivating back roads of Washington State. Highway 9 leads us through picturesque carnation and tulip fields as we head north towards the North Cascades National Park and Scenic Byway. Brace yourself for awe-inspiring scenery as we reach the North Cascades, a true gem comparable to the Canadian Rockies. We settle for the night in Winthrop, a charming western-themed town. Relax by the river, savoring a refreshing drink or a glass of wine, and reflect on the incredible day we've had.
Day 3 : Winthrop – Kamloops
Start your day with a cup of coffee by the river before crossing the border into Canada's wine country, Oliver, B.C. Traverse roads winding through vineyards and fruit stands, and enjoy a lakeside lunch by the stunning Lake Okanagan. Our journey continues northwest, through majestic mountains, as we make our way to Kamloops, B.C. Immerse yourself in Canadian hospitality and get ready for the rugged landscapes that lie ahead.
Day 4 : Kamloops – Prince George
Today's route showcases a scenic stretch of road adorned with lakes at every turn, offering glimpses into the historic roadhouses dating back to the Cariboo gold rush era. Make a stop in Williams Lake, renowned for its log home construction, vast logging industry, and breathtaking vistas. The Fraser River accompanies us for most of the ride, treating us to canyon views and thrilling winding roads. As you delve deeper into Northern Canada, prepare for the infamous Alaskan Highway, or "ALCAN Highway." Rest well tonight, for the real adventure is about to unfold.
Day 5 : Prince George – Fort St. John
Immerse yourself in the stunning mountain roads of Pine Le Moray Provincial Park as we journey towards Dawson Creek. Here, we capture group and individual photos at the "0 Mile" post of the Alaska Hwy, also known as the ALCAN. Our day concludes in Fort St. John, a town rich in history as a fur trading post and a meeting point between early pioneers and the local population.
Day 6 : Fort St John - Fort Nelson
Today marks the beginning of a more remote ride, which is precisely why we have a professional experienced guide and support vehicle accompanying us. Towns become sparser, with names like Sikanni Chief, Bucking Horse, and Trutch. Wildlife sightings become more frequent as we venture deeper into untouched landscapes. You came here to experience the last great frontier of North America from the saddle of a bike specifically built for these conditions, and tonight, we rest in Fort Nelson. This town has a significant historical background, having established an air base during WW2 for the Royal Canadian and US air forces. It was also the original "0 Mile" marker for the ALCAN before its extension to Dawson Creek.
Day 7 : Fort Nelson - Watson Lake
Prepare for an awe-inspiring ride through the northern part of the Canadian Rockies, alongside the captivating length of Lake Muncho. Words cannot fully capture the beauty as we cruise through the valley, skirting Lake Muncho, with majestic foothills and peaks on both sides. Take a memorable break along the Laird River, where you can enjoy lunch and possibly dip into the famous hot springs. Afterward, we cross into the Yukon Territory and spend the night in Watson Lake. Welcome to The Yukon, where the Pan America and paved roads transport you back to the late 1890s.
Day 8 : Watson Lake – Whitehorse
Our journey takes us through the Yukon, crossing the Continental Divide, and skirting the magnificent 75-mile-long Teslin Lake before traversing the renowned Yukon River. The Yukon River played a crucial role in transporting stampeders and miners to and from the goldfields of the Klondike. We conclude our day in Whitehorse, the capital and largest city of the Yukon.
Day 9 : Free Day to Explore Whitehorse and The Yukon
After all the riding we've done, take this day to explore historic Whitehorse. Visit the Yukon Beringia Interpretive Center and the Klondike SS Klondike Ferry & Museum to delve into the rich First Nations and gold rush history of the region. If weather permits, you may opt for a day ride to the waterfront town of Skagway, Alaska, known for its historic charm and scenic beauty.
Day 10 : Whitehorse – Beaver Creek
Prepare for the most remote leg of the tour, with few towns along the way. However, the riding and scenery are unparalleled. Journey through the lands of the Champagne and Aishihik First Nations, cross the Kluane Lake on a bridge, pass through Destruction Bay, and finally reach Beaver Creek. This town straddles the border between Canada's Yukon Territory and the US State of Alaska. While it's bittersweet to bid farewell to the Yukon, tomorrow we cross into Alaska.
Day 11 Beaver Creek-Copper Center
Today, we officially enter Alaska! Brace yourself for breathtaking views of the Wrangell St. Elias National Park and Preserve as we navigate one of the most remote stretches of paved road in the entire state, the Tok Highway. Few visitors to Alaska have the opportunity to witness this part of the state, as it lies off the main tourist corridor. We end our day in Copper Center, where we can unwind and relish the views along the Klutina River.
Day 12 Copper Center – Fairbanks
Our route today leads us through large sections of the Alaska pipeline as we journey north through the heart of the Alaska Range. Stop in the town of Delta Junction to capture photos at mile marker 1422, which marks the terminus of the ALCAN Highway. As always, expect more awe-inspiring vistas, wildlife encounters, and small-town charm along the way. Our ride concludes in Fairbanks, another town that flourished during the Alaska gold rush following the Klondike rush.
Day 13 Fairbanks - Denali National Park
Prepare for an extraordinary day filled with unique adventures. Subject to availability, you may have the option to take a flight over the Arctic Circle, including a stop in the remote town of Cold Foot, where you can receive a certificate for having traveled north of the Arctic Circle. Afterward, enjoy a quick lunch and embark on the ride to Denali for the night.
Day 14 Denali National Park – Anchorage
Today, we venture into Denali National Park, hoping for clear skies to catch a glimpse of Denali, North America's tallest peak, standing at 20,300 feet. Journey south to Talkeetna, renowned as the base camp for climbers attempting to summit Denali. We'll indulge in lunch in this vibrant town before making our final push to Anchorage. Although it's hard to believe our journey is coming to an end, we'll celebrate with a farewell dinner and bid farewell to the incredible riders who have become our family over these unforgettable miles.
Day 15 Anchorage - Departure
As your adventure comes to a close, consider extending your stay in Anchorage for a day or two to fully explore the area. Don't miss the opportunity to take a flight to Kodiak and witness grizzly bears in action or embark on a day cruise to admire the local glaciers.
