FROM THE SEA TO THE SUMMIT
OUR MOST POPULAR RAIL ADVENTURE!

Take an unforgettable journey aboard the “Scenic Railway of the World” to the White Pass summit.

Fully narrated, the White Pass & Yukon Route is unlike any other railroad. Against all odds, the iron trail was carved through some of the North’s most rugged terrain in 1898. This engineering wonder climbs nearly 3,000 feet over 20 miles of steep grades and cliff-hanging turns. Relax in old-fashioned parlor cars as your train agent retraces the original route to the White Pass summit, passing Bridal Veil Falls, Inspiration Point and Dead Horse Gulch. Enjoy a breathtaking panorama of mountains, glaciers, gorges, waterfalls, tunnels, trestles and historic sites. See the original Klondike Trail of '98 worn into the rocks, a permanent tribute to the thousands of souls who passed this way in search of fortune. Board the train right at the cruise ship pier.

This tour is highly recommended for passengers using wheelchairs.
