Whittier

Trip to Whittier, Alaska - About 50 miles from Anchorage

The Turnagain Arm - About 5 minutes from Anchorage

Tunnel to Whittier - The longest highway tunnel in North America. It was originally a railroad tunnel but has recently been converted to a one lane road/railroad tunnel. Traffic leaves from each side once every hour.

The tunnel is a couple miles long. You drive on railroad tracks.
