Beyond the front ranges lie icefields and glacial valleys crowned by Mount Logan, Canada's highest peak. Watch for moose, bears and sheep on your scenic drive along the Kluane Parkway. Visit Destruction Bay and Burwash Landing, two lakeside villages on the shore of Kluane Lake, and Beaver Creek, Canada's westernmost community adjacent to the Canada/U.S. border. The Kluane Region is the perfect base for day excursions like glacier flightseeing, nature walks and canoeing, or a visit to Sheep Mountain or the Kluane Museum of Natural History. The scenic drive from Haines Junction to Beaver Creek will take you about four hours.

Here you'll find Canada’s most westerly community, home to the White River First Nation. It is a natural stopping point because of its close proximity to the Canada/U.S. border. Beaver Creek features First Nation arts, crafts and natural history. Here the Alaska Highway parallels the majestic outer rim of Kluane National Park offering one of the continents' healthiest grizzly populations.
