Are you planning a trip to Fortymile Gold Country? Our Taylor Highway Fortymile Gold Country Travel Guide highlights points of interest to ensure you have the best trip possible!

The Taylor Highway is a route through gold mining history. Prospectors searched for gold in the Fortymile region well before the famous Klondike stampede of 1897. Many of the names along the highway recall the early days of the gold rush: Logging Cabin Creek, Jack Wade Creek, and Lost Chicken Hill. Active mines dot the route as a reminder that the lure of gold still lives in Fortymile country.
