Parks Highway

Parks Highway doesn't actually refer to the national parks along the way, but to a former highway director for the state of Alaska. It is one of the newer of the major roads in  Alaska, and connects Fairbanks to Anchorage, passing Denali State and National Parks along the way. I am also including the spur road off the Parks Highway that takes you to Talkeetna, which has some impressive views of Mt McKinley, and is a popular center for flights around the mountain.
