Self-drive tours in the Yukon

Eleven roads form a network of 4800 kilometres across the Yukon. With a hire car you can reach the most interesting places entirely at your own pace. On the Alaska Highway, the Silver Trail, the Golden Circle or the Klondike/Kluane Loop, you discover the fascinating landscape and the unique history of the territory.

Stop off in the historic town of Dawson, where the First Nations prospectors Dawson Charly and Skookum Jim once struck gold. Climb the impressive mountains of the Pacific coast and hike through national parks such as Kluane National Park, which is home to one of Canada’s largest glacier areas. Incidentally, the largest glaciers are up to 100 kilometres long.

Self-drive tours in the Yukon – in summer and winter

On a self-drive tour through the Yukon, countless idyllic roadside spots invite you to stop time and again. Lace up your hiking boots or hop on a mountain bike and follow the narrow trails down to the rivers of the catchment area and their valleys. From canoeing in summer to dog sledding in winter, the region offers a wide variety of activities. And how about a round of golf under the midnight sun? Anyone keen to try their luck like the gold prospectors of old can do so at the casino in Whitehorse, the capital of the Yukon.
