Annual Sheep & Crane Viewing Festival

Don’t miss the Annual Sheep & Crane Viewing Festival and one of North America’s most spectacular migrations of the Sandhill Cranes!

On the second weekend in May, the Sandhill Cranes are on their way to nesting grounds in western Alaska and North-eastern Siberia. Visitors can see the birds funnel through the Yukon's "Birdlock of Sandhill Cranes Highway" also known as the Tintina Trench. It is exciting to watch as they swoop, soar and ride thermals right over the Town of Faro.
