The experience

About this experience

The White Pass & Yukon Route was built as a narrow-gauge railway in 1898 so that gold prospectors could reach the Klondike. It is still counted among the steepest railway routes in the world.

The climb runs along cliff edges and past waterfalls up to the White Pass summit. Choose a seat by the window and keep your camera ready.
