How to Road Trip the Yukon on a Budget (Updated 2025)

"Wandering the Sign Post Forest in Watson Lake was a highlight—tens of thousands of road signs, license plates, and markers from around the world—and I added a sign at the visitor center’s small sign‑making station." - Matthew Kepnes

This is one of the most unique experience while driving the Alaska highway or visiting Yukon. This place will tell you how far people have driven to complete the historic Alaskan highway. There is no rush hour I suppose, it just takes time to get a n empty spot for your sign. Carry your own hammer, nails etc and keep looking for side of the posts I’m sure you will find a sweet corner for your personalized sign. Don’t stick your signs on the trees, it won’t be counted. Hope it helps.

What an absolutely fun stop. This sign post forest is full of fun signs from all over the world. As of September 2024, there were over 120,000 signs. They count them every year. We made a sunflower sign and brought it with us. It was fun trying to find an empty spot to hang our sign. We spent a long time just walking around. The visitor centre that sits in the forest is no longer there. It is across the street at the Northern Lights Centre, which is a great place to visit. In the forest is a picnic table where you can enjoy your lunch or snacks. There is also a great parking lot at the back of the forest that can accommodate any RV. Make your sign, bring something to hang it (we brought screws and a drill) and take a picture.

Otherworldly fabulous! It was fun walking through the famous Sign Post Forest in Watson Lake, YT, and to see various signages from all over the world! We even found one of our friends' Motorcade RV Traveling caravan posted sign, who visited this spot 8 yrs ago! Fun! ✨️

This place is so cool. It has been around for such a long time. And people have posted signs over the years. You could walk around for hours. Just looking at all the signs

Wasn't sure if this would be worth a stop, but I SO glad I took some time to explore it. It is massive! SO much more extensive than I'd imagined. I didn't have a sign with me to add to the collection, but it was fun walking around, looking for license plates from my state (Tennessee). Definitely worth a visit. Directly off the Alaska Highway.

Quirky place. Bring your own sign. Take pictures of your placement so you can find it again. Ours from 11 years ago was gone. Tags gas & groceries nearby is well stocked.

A fun, quirky stop when passing through Watson Lake, YK! It’s neat to browse the signs to see where others have visited from. It would take hours to see and read all of the signs. A must-see if you like unique (and free!) roadside attractions.

What a unique place, so many memories dreams, so many people, it is an incredible place. We were able to find a spot and put our sign. If you're driving by, stop and take a look at it.
