Know before you go to Hyder

Getting there

Hyder sits just across the border from Stewart, British Columbia. It has road access on the mainland but is so cut off from the rest of Alaska that it relies almost entirely on Stewart. (travelalaska.com · checked Oct 6, 2026)
Hyder is reached by road through Canada: a 41-mile detour off B.C.'s Cassiar Highway at Meziadin Lake Junction (Highway 37A) leads to Stewart, B.C., and then Hyder. (fs.usda.gov · checked Oct 6, 2026)
Hyder is not on the Alaska Marine Highway's community list, so no state ferry stop is listed for it. (dot.alaska.gov · checked Oct 5, 2026)

Alcohol rules

Hyder is not on the state's local option list (as of March 13, 2024), so no local-option alcohol limits are on record for it. (commerce.alaska.gov · checked Oct 6, 2026)

Medical care

Local public radio reported in December 2023 that Hyder had recently re-established its fire department. (kfsk.org · checked Oct 6, 2026)
Across the border in Stewart, B.C., the Stewart Health Centre has a daytime emergency department with staff on call after hours; for life-threatening emergencies Northern Health says to call 9-1-1. (northernhealth.ca · checked Oct 5, 2026)

Good to know

Canada's border agency recommends that U.S. citizens entering Canada carry a valid passport; other documents showing citizenship and identity, such as a U.S. enhanced driver's license, may be accepted. (cbsa-asfc.gc.ca · checked Oct 6, 2026)
The Fish Creek bear-viewing site, three miles north of Hyder, charges $10 per person for a day, keeps Pacific Time hours and bans cooking, even in parking areas. Walk straight to the boardwalk, not along the road. A glacier flood damaged the platform, so the site is only partly open. (fs.usda.gov · checked Oct 6, 2026)
Hyder runs on Pacific time, not Alaska time, uses Stewart, B.C.'s phone area code, and residents shop across the border in Canada. (travelalaska.com · checked Oct 6, 2026)
