The Alaska Highway and Other Alaskan Roads

Unofficially part of the Pan-American highway, the Alaska Highway is one of the most popular roads on which to travel if your going to RV through Alaska. This highway actually starts in British Columbia, and ends in Delta Junction.

The Alaska Highways isn't the only beautiful road to travel in Alaska. In fact, a great number of Alaska 's roads are award winning due to the excellent condition in which they are kept. Although the winter months wreak havoc on these roads (especially in the north), they are continually repaired and maintained to give travelers the best experience possible. Check out the follow highways for your Alaskan travel:

The Seward Highway: connecting Anchorage to Seward (this is an All-American ranked highway)
The Alaska Marine Highway: running along the coast (also an All-American ranked highway, as well as part of the National Scenic Byways Program)
The Glenn Highway: connecting Anchorage to Glennallen (also in the National Scenic Byways Program)
The Dalton Highway: connecting Livengood to Prudhoe Bay
The Steese Highway: connecting Fairbanks to Circle
The Parks Highway: connecting Wasilla to the Denali National Park
The Richardson Highway: connecting Glennallen to Valdez
The Sterling Highway: connecting Tern Lake to Homer

Don't forget to check road conditions before you leave. While you will probably not experience bad weather if you travel during the late spring, summer, and early fall, it is important to check on construction. It is better to know ahead of time rather than to be traveling and get stuck in traffic due to construction. If you're prepared, you can plan an alternative route.
