Things to Do:

Whether your passion lies in pursuing outdoor adventures, participating in cultural events and festivals, or enjoying a comfortable ride through extraordinary scenery, you'll find it all on a Yukon vacation. A vacation in the Yukon will energize your soul as you explore our scenic drives and let the pace of Yukon's vast wilderness set the tone. From active adventures to fun events and festivals, from historic sites to shopping, you can find your own groove on a vacation in Canada's Yukon.

If natural wonders are high on your list, the Yukon is hard to top. You'll find towering mountains, boreal forests, sweeping tundra, rushing rivers, enormous glaciers and miles of Arctic coastline. You'll sleep beneath the northern lights and dance under the midnight sun. You'll discover the majesty of our national parks (Kluane, Ivvavik and Vuntut), territorial parks (Tombstone and Herschel Island) and Canadian Heritage Rivers (Thirty Mile―Yukon, Alsek, Tatshenshini, Bonnet Plume). You'll gaze up at Mount Logan, Canada's highest peak, and witness the migration of the Porcupine caribou herd.

Let history come alive on your Yukon journey as you follow the trails of First Nation traders and gold strike prospectors, and visit Dawson City to relive the heady days of the Klondike Gold Rush. Share stories with a First Nations elder. Learn about ancient Beringian creatures that roamed the Yukon Territory 10,000 years ago. There's no limit to the fun to be had in the Yukon.
