Alaska Highway
The engineering marvel of the Second World War, and major
adventure road leading to the Yukon and Alaska. To many,
this trip represents a lifetime of planning and thought,
while to others it is an annual journey. Whether this is
your first time or you're a seasoned traveller of the highway
we hope the information will be an asset. Stretching 2,288
km/1422 miles from Dawson Creek, British Columbia to Delta
Junction, Alaska. The highway is mostly paved in Canada
and all paved in Alaska.
From Dawson Creek, the highway extends almost 968 km/595
miles to Lower Post where it enters the Yukon. The highway
winds through the Yukon for about 885 km/550 miles and
crosses into Alaska at mile 1221/km 1964. Continuing on
to Delta Junction at mile 1422/km 2288, the Alaska Highway
joins the Richardson Highway for the remaining 98 miles/158
km to Fairbanks.
