Journeying “off the beaten track” has become an overused travel cliche. However, Ben and Rebecca live up to the phrase’s true meaning in this episode of Go Beyond as they attempt a challenging ten-day overlanding trip from southern Alaska to the Arctic Ocean.

There is only one way to drive to the Arctic Ocean—along the Dempster Highway—a remote 740km stretch of road that extends to Inuvik, high in Canada’s Northwest Territories. Join the couple as they navigate testy road and severe weather conditions, drive through stunning wild beauty, and make four-legged encounters at the “top of the world.” ■

ABOUT BEN & REBECCA  For more than a decade, life-long travelers Ben and Rebecca Pazdernik have enjoyed life on the road, venturing beyond the glacial beauty of their home state of Alaska to roam the vast North American continent. Having built an international online audience in the process, in 2018 the couple purchased a FUSO FG140 4×4 expedition vehicle to embark on an extraordinary around-the-world adventure.
