GRAB YOUR PASSPORTS, BECAUSE WE ARE HEADING NORTH TO THE YUKON!
Yukon Suspension Bridge Tour – White Pass & Scenic Yukon Adventure
Mountain passes stretching into the distance.
Alpine landscapes carved by time.
A walk across one of the Yukon’s most unique landmarks.
If you’re looking to go beyond Skagway and see what lies on the other side of the mountains, then the Yukon Suspension Bridge from Skagway is your ticket.
My name’s Alex, a local Skagway guide who’s spent years running this road and learning its stories. Instead of squeezing onto a crowded tour bus, you’ll travel in a small group led by someone who actually lives here and knows every turn along the way.
We’ll follow one of the famous trails of the stampeder’s rushing north. Through the White Pass, and roll straight into Canada, where the landscape opens up and the crowds fall away.
And along the way… we’ll make our way to one of the Yukon’s most unique stops.

Not far from the town limits, we will cross the U.S.–Canada border and officially enter the Yukon.
From here, everything changes.
The mountains stretch wider. The valleys open up. The feeling shifts from coastal Alaska to something quieter, broader, and a little more wild.
And just like that, you’re in a different world.
