LA to Alaska Adventure Tour 14th May to 31st May 2020
This trip is for experienced riders only (and their passengers)! We ride from Los Angeles to Anchorage Alaska up the beautiful Pacific Coast Highway as far as Oregon then through the Canadian Rockies. It is a mostly tarmac trip but involves some long days and we may encounter gravel roads as we travel through British Colombia, Yukon Territory and Alaska. Jane has ridden this trip herself on a number of occasions and you can see her diaries on Facebook to get a taste of what you may encounter on the way. Very limited number of places available. Lady riders positively encouraged!
Trip Itinerary
We start in Los Angeles and ride up the beautiful Pacific Coast Highway visiting various must see spots along the way.
We have a 2 night stop in Portland Oregon, so half trippers can leave or join us, and any issues with machines can be sorted before heading into the wilds of British Columbia and the Yukon. Those who are taking part in the whole trip can have a day off to visit Boeing or the Spruce Goose (worlds largest wooden airplane) or if you really want another day on the bike a ride up the Columbia River Gorge can be fun.
We then head over the Border and into Canada. Riding through the spectacular Canadian Rockies on empty roads with room to spare, keeping an eye out for the local wildlife of course, cameras at the ready!
We may encounter some seasonal roadworks up here, which can mean pilot cars and gravel roads, so please take care.
5 nights in Canada then into Alaska itself.
Border crossings in either direction can be lengthy so patience may be required.
We head for Valdez for another 2 night stop, so on our second day off for the trip, you can take an optional boat trip out to see the whales (hopefully) and the Columbia Glacier.
And finally, our last day's ride we head on in to Anchorage to drop off our bikes. The hotel is close to the bike drop so no drama.
Please note that we reserve the right to change the route of our California to Alaska motorcycle tours without notice to suit weather conditions or other issues that may affect the chosen route. All mileages area approximate.
