This 2.5 to 2.75 hour, 40 mile round trip climbs from tidewater at Skagway to the Summit of White Pass, a 2,885 foot elevation. The fully narrated tour passes through
2 tunnels, over sky-high trestles & cascading waterfalls.
Board a motor coach at the White Pass Depot in Whitehorse for a trip along the scenic South Klondike Highway to Fraser, BC, then a 27.7-mile rail excursion over the White Pass
Summit into Skagway, Alaska. After a two hour layover in Skagway, then re-board your motor coach for the return trip to Whitehorse.
Travel 27.7 miles by train between Skagway, AK, and Fraser, BC, coupling that with a motor coach transfer to/from Whitehorse, YT.
A great way to connect your Canadian & Alaskan holiday adventures!
Engine #73, the pride of the White Pass fleet has undergone an immense overhaul and will thrill guests once again as it connects people to WP&YR’s rich history!
Six miles beyond White Pass Summit to Fraser Meadows!
Travel 67.5 miles by train between Skagway, AK, and Carcross, YT, following the
same route that the Klondike stampeders traversed in 1898! Couple this with a
motor coach transfer along the scenic Klondike Highway for the perfect day trip
from Skagway. Includes a stop at remote & historic Bennett, BC, for a stroll through
our Bennett Station museum. A hearty lunch is served on board.
