This tour is for those who want to distance
themselves from civilization, and challenge themselves on the long
dirt highways of Interior Alaska. We will be riding past Mt. McKinley,
passing through the Alaska Range twice, visit two natural hot springs,
the Yukon River …..you will see more of Alaska than most Alaskan!
We have designed this tour to have three rest days along the route,
for those who would like time to relax, explore around on a dual-
purpose motorcycle, or do another activity you always wanted to
experience in Alaska. This will be a great tour for those who like
to go to the edge!
