A sharp, clean air settles as you step out of downtown Whitehorse and the town lights give way to a field of stars. Snow crunches underfoot and the low rumble of a snowmobile carries over frozen lakes; a team of huskies strains at their traces, eager to run. Over five days you move between speed and stillness—flightseeing above glacier-etched valleys, the tactile thud of dog sled runners, and long pauses under the aurora.

A sharp, clean air settles as you step out of downtown Whitehorse and the town lights give way to a field of stars. Snow crunches underfoot and the low rumble of a snowmobile carries over frozen lakes; a team of huskies strains at their traces, eager to run. Over five days you move between speed and stillness—flightseeing above glacier-etched valleys, the tactile thud of dog sled runners, and long pauses under the aurora.
Whitehorse sits on the Yukon River where the Klondike Gold Rush reshaped settlement and transport; you’ll pass the SS Klondike and log-built architecture that recall that era. Geologically the region is defined by glacial valleys and folded mountain ranges—your sightseeing flight reveals how ice carved lakes and ridgelines. Local culture mixes First Nations heritage and frontier outdoor life; guides often weave stories of traditional travel and contemporary land stewardship into outings.
Practically, expect active half-day and full-day experiences: a 30–40 minute sightseeing flight, wildlife preserve visit, a hot springs soak, dog-sledding sessions, two aurora outings, and a half-day snowmobile tour. Mornings are cold and clear; evenings are prime for aurora viewing. Bring layered clothing, a windproof outer layer, and footwear rated for deep snow. Guides provide equipment and safety briefings for snowmobiling and mushing; prior winter experience helps but isn’t required—just a moderate level of fitness and respect for cold-weather protocols.
Timing your trip for peak darkness increases aurora odds; the itinerary balances adrenaline with restorative hot springs and wildlife watching, making this a compact, practical Yukon winter primer.
Minimum age is 19 years for participants on these winter activities.
No—aurora sightings depend on solar activity and clear skies; the program includes two aurora outings to increase your chances.
