The Route

This page will show the route we have taken across the Americas. After we have finished each country we will post a map of our route taken from Garmin Mapsource.

CANADA

This shows the route both across from Halifax to Alaska and the route that we took back down to the USA.

ALASKA

We drove from the Canadian border (crossing at the Top of the World Highway) up to Prudhoe Bay and then back down to the Kenai peninsula before heading back out along the Alaska Highway.

USA – Lower 48

Here is a close up of our route through Colorado and Utah which is where we spent the bulk of our time in the Lower 48.

Mexico

We entered Mexico at the Tecate border crossing from California and headed down Baja to La Paz where we caught a ferry to the mainland.

Once on the Mainland we headed inland from Mazatlan and via Mexico City headed South to near the Guatemala border before doing a loop round the Yucatan and into Belize.

Once we exited Belize we headed into Guatemala and did a loop round to the West to Lake Atitlan before leaving into El Salvador on the Eastern side.

From Guatemala we exited into El Salvador and drove across the country from West to East exiting on the PanAmerican into Honduras. We crossed Honduras within 24 hours and exited into Nicaragua in the North West of the country.

The major sites in Nicaragua are all of the PanAm which means that the best route is from the NW through to the SE of the country.
