You seem to be…

Relaxed Traveller

You enjoy venturing out in nature, but your dream trip to the Yukon doesn’t stray too far from at least a few modern comforts. Your preference is to have the option to unwind and treat yourself rather than tackling gruelling hikes, but that doesn’t mean you want to miss out on iconic Yukon activities like the northern lights or midnight sun. Arts & culture are a focus and you seek out guided tours so you can learn about the territory’s land and heritage.

Curious Explorer

Your dream trip to the Yukon combines exploration of the unknown with down-to-earth comforts. Seeing the iconic landscape by any means possible is how you like to travel; car, hiking, dog sledding, horseback riding, mountain biking, you’ll do it all. Plus, you’re not shy to ask locals for recommendations. And when it comes to resting your weary feet, the unique lodgings on offer pique your interest.

Extreme Adventurer

You’re all about going off the beaten track and answering the call of the wild with a howl of your own. As a lover of the outdoors, you’ve planned your adventures ahead of time but are always looking to uncover the lesser known and one-of-a-kind activities that can be found by speaking to the locals. Breaking a sweat is how you roll, ride, ski or sled and at the end of a high octane day, you’re happy with a simple tent-pad in the heart of nature.

Getting to the Yukon is easy

car-road

Trust us, if the Yukon was at the end of the world, we’d definitely be adding that to our slogan—but it’s actually a lot closer than you’d imagine, even for Ontarians and Eastern Canadians. Think of it like this: If the rest of Canada was a family home, then the Yukon would be that super-cool big sister’s attic bedroom that you’ve only caught glimpses of. Starting to sound a little less like a fur trading outpost? Good. Fact is, the Yukon is out there, but not out there out there.

Fall season

Every season there’s a reason to visit.

Minus 50 happens sometimes. But the truth is, we have four very distinct seasons: There’s fall and winter, when you'll find us snowshoeing, dog sledding and fat biking under the Aurora Borealis—a light show that puts Berlin nightclubs to shame. Then, there’s the spring and summer, when you’ll find us hiking, biking, camping and rafting until the sun goes down—which is really saying something, since the days this far north are crazy-long (sometimes, the sun doesn’t set at all). What can we say? Bring your toque. Bring your sunscreen.
