Seward Highway from Anchorage to Seward, Alaska, USA

The 127-mile Seward Highway has three designations to its credit, including the USDA Forest Service Scenic Byway, Alaska Scenic Byway, and All-American Road. And traveling this highway is a photographer’s paradise. In just the first 50 miles, the highway runs along Turnagain Arm, home to beluga whales, as well as the Chugach Mountains, where you might find Dall sheep, grizzly and black bears, and bald eagles. As the highway continues onto the Kenai Peninsula, it winds through the Kenai Mountains and crests Turnagain Pass, a haven of wildflowers and berries, and travels along many creeks as well as small and large lakes. Always in the shadow of mountains, the highway reaches its destination in Seward, a port city and gateway to Kenai Fjords National Park. Photo by Alaska Photo Treks
