Whitehorse Return

The Yukon territory of Canada is just about as remote as they come. And here is one of the few places in the world where you can watch as the aurora borealis sparkles bright in the sky. The north truly is a place of wonder, and that’s exactly why your excursion begins here. Arriving in the afternoon, you’ll have plenty of time to enjoy at leisure and explore this gold-rush city. Pop in at one of the many galleries and museums, or take a stroll along the banks of the Yukon River. This evening, set out on your viewing of the northern lights.

Stay: Whitehorse, central location

Begin the day with a guided discovery of Whitehorse, including the Train Depot of the White Pass and Yukon Route, Log Skycraper, Log Church, Sternwheeler SS Klondike, Fish Ladder and Schwatka Lake. In the afternoon you’ll be taken to the Southern Lakes Resort. Located away from the hustle and bustle of the city, enjoy the majestic lake and mountain scenery. Take the time to unwind before dinner. Afterwards, be sure to keep your eyes on the skies in hope of seeing the northern lights. Named after the Roman Goddess of dawn, Aurora, and the Greek name for the north wind, Borealis, the spectacle is legendary in every sense of the word. The resort has plenty of special vantage points to view at your leisure. Regardless of where you watch from, if the magical lights reveal themselves, you’re sure to be impressed.
