Mountain biking
A triple serving of singletrack
Always a haven for outdoor enthusiasts, the Yukon has become a top destination for mountain bikers looking for extraordinary trails with something special. Thrill-a-minute riding? Breathtaking panoramas? Yes, and yes. Plus, many of these trails trace culturally significant First Nations footpaths or follow historic gold and silver mining routes.

Hit a bike shop or a Visitor Information Centre for some local knowledge, then get on a bike and go. Tour operators also offer rental bikes and guided rides. Or if you’re looking for the full package, stay at a wilderness lodge where you can sleep in a yurt, soak in a hot tub and enjoy local cuisine at a communal table. Then get up and do it all again.
