The magic of the Yukon comes to life on this 4-day northern adventure. Spend your days exploring Whitehorse from your centrally located hotel, enjoy a guided city tour and head out on optional daytime adventures such as ice fishing, snowshoeing or dogsledding. In the warmer months, you can enjoy hiking and fishing.
At night, we will whisk you away from the city lights to a cozy cabin or wall tent with an outdoor platform for an unobstructed view of the Aurora Borealis. You’ll have three chances to view the mystical Northern Lights on this trip. Â Warm up with a coffee or tea as you wait by the fire for the Aurora show to start: an eerie green sheen that ripples into the night sky and arcs slowly to suddenly burst across the full expanse of the sky — nature at its best!
