Beautiful aurora

Yukon is a great place to appreciate the northern lights. When the aurora is strong enough, you can even enjoy the beautiful aurora in downtown Whitehorse!


2 - Polar plunge ac_unit

Polar Plunge

How does it feel to jump into ice water at minus 30 degrees? You must have never experienced it! There is a group of people here who will do this activity in winter. It may be in the artificial pool or in the middle of the lake. It's crazy!


3 - Trail walk hiking

Grey Mountain Cave

Yukon is known as an outdoor paradise, whether you are cycling, hiking, canoeing, rock climbing, etc. all kinds of outdoor sports are very suitable.


4 - Desert adventure snowmobile

Side-by-Side adventure

If you haven't been to the desert, Carcross, which is about an hour's drive from Whitehorse City, has one of the smallest deserts in the world.


5 - Meet the wildlife pets

There are many kinds of wild animals in Yukon, but if you want to collect most of them at once, why not visit the "Yukon Wildlife Preserve" in Whitehorse City! Remember to dress warmly, because it may take about two hours to walk around!
