Driving in the Last Frontier, whether by car, motorcycle or RV is unlike driving anyplace else on Earth. Spectacular views, majestic lakes and rivers, towering mountains, glaciers, wildflowers and wildlife are all an exciting part of the Alaska driving experience. Whether you drive your own vehicle or rent a car or RV, you'll never see so much magnificent scenery as you will in America's most northern and largest state.
The following routes have earned the designation of Alaska's "scenic byway," meaning they possess significant natural, historic, recreational, cultural and/or archeological resources.

Have taken five trips to Alaska, three by road, two by ship. Each time is new and exciting. Scenery will take your breath away. Take your time and move around. The interior is vastly different than the coastal areas. Chances of seeing bears along the roadside much better early in the season when they are grazing on grass near the roadside. All highways were in remarkably good condition this year as compared to past trips. Did not go across Top of World this time but understand that road is still 20-30 mph. No reason not to take it, just figure on taking more time. Destruction Bay area had poor road surface going up but improved coming back down. Cassiar was smooth as silk except for about 20 miles under construction. Suggest taking commercial transportaiton on Dalton Haul Road rather than driving your RV.
