Animals may outnumber humans in the Yukon, but much of the Canadian territory’s allure lies in its untamed nature. Between bustling towns like Dawson City and Whitehorse, discover vast expanses of wilderness, from soaring mountains to sweeping ice fields. Where the Alaska and Klondike highways intersect, discover Whitehorse, the capital city of the Yukon Territory. Explore its burgeoning arts scene, shop for locally made goods in its boutiques and learn more about the area at the Yukon Visitor Centre. Check out a remarkably preserved riverboat, which was built in 1929 and sank in 1936, at the SS Klondike National Historic Site on the Yukon River. When speculators struck gold in Dawson City in the late 19th century, it quickly became the epicenter of the Klondike Gold Rush. Although it is much less populated today than it was in its heyday, Dawson City's small-town charm draws you in. Step back in time as your stroll along the town’s dirt streets. Visit nearby Tombstone Territorial Park, a stunning wilderness dotted with glaciers and alpine lakes. Follow in the footsteps of gold prospectors along the Klondike Highway. The 445-mile (716-kilometer) highway begins in Alaska and traverses the imposing Chilkoot Pass before opening into lush alpine territory. Explore the expansive wilderness of Kluane National Park and Reserve. This magnificent area, marked by mountains and ice, covers much of the territory’s southwest corner. See the soaring peak of Mount Logan, the tallest mountain in Canada. The Yukon’s breathtaking natural beauty is its star attraction. After darkness falls, see the sky come to life with the brilliant aurora borealis. Keep watch for wild animals such as moose, elk, lynx and reindeer. Access the Yukon by flying into Whitehorse. Alternatively, take ground transportation from the Alaskan city of Skagway. It has something to offer in every season, but the days are remarkably long in summertime. ### Popular cities in Yukon [WhitehorseKnown for Museums, Northern lights and Hockey](https://expedia.ca/Whitehorse.dx4129) ## Reasons to visit - Yukon Wildlife Preserve - SS Klondike - Yukon Beringia Interpretive Centre [Explore city](https://expedia.ca/Whitehorse.dx4129)[Find hotels](https://expedia.ca/Whitehorse-Hotels.d4129.Travel-Guide-Hotels) [Dawson CityKnown for Casinos, Rivers and Ferries and boats](https://expedia.ca/Dawson-City.dx3918) [Explore city](https://expedia.ca/Dawson-City.dx3918)[Find hotels](https://expedia.ca/Dawson-City-Hotels.d3918.Travel-Guide-Hotels) [Watson LakeKnown for Northern lights, Forests and Adventure](https://expedia.ca/Watson-Lake.dx4047) [Explore city](https://expedia.ca/Watson-Lake.dx4047)[Find hotels](https://expedia.ca/Watson-Lake-Hotels.d4047.Travel-Guide-Hotels) [Beaver CreekKnown for Rivers, Dining and Excursions](https://expedia.ca/Beaver-Creek.dx177773) [Explore city](https://expedia.ca/Beaver-Creek.dx177773)[Find hotels](https://expedia.ca/Beaver-Creek-Hotels.d177773.Travel-Guide-Hotels) [CarcrossKnown for Historical](https://expedia.ca/Carcross.dx6052310) [Explore city](https://expedia.ca/Carcross.dx6052310)[Find hotels](https://expedia.ca/Carcross-Hotels.d6052310.Travel-Guide-Hotels) [Haines JunctionKnown for Friendly people, Nature and Natural parks](https://expedia.ca/Haines-Junction.dx6195345) [Explore city](https://expedia.ca/Haines-Junction.dx6195345)[Find hotels](https://expedia.ca/Haines-Junction-Hotels.d6195345.Travel-Guide-Hotels) - Top cities in Yukon [Beaver Creek](https://expedia.ca/Beaver-Creek.dx177773)[Burwash Landing](https://expedia.ca/Burwash-Landing.dx3000424726)[Canyon](https://expedia.ca/Canyon.dx553248635922160733)[Carcross](https://expedia.ca/Carcross.dx6052310)[Carmacks](https://expedia.ca/Carmacks.dx60705)[Dawson City](https://expedia.ca/Dawson-City.dx3918)[Destruction Bay](https://expedia.ca/Destruction-Bay.dx3000451764)[Eagle Plains](https://expedia.ca/Eagle-Plains.dx3000387733)[Faro](https://expedia.ca/Faro.dx4168)[Haines Junction](https://expedia.ca/Haines-Junction.dx6195345)[Ibex Valley](https://expedia.ca/Ibex-Valley.dx553248635922160728)[Jakes Corner](https://expedia.ca/Jakes-Corner.dx177423)[Johnson's Crossing](https://expedia.ca/Johnsons-Crossing.dx3000376012)[Marsh Lake](https://expedia.ca/Marsh-Lake.dx6345860)[Mayo](https://expedia.ca/Mayo.dx10584)[McEvoy Lake](https://expedia.ca/McEvoy-Lake.dx6346246)[Mount Lorne](https://expedia.ca/Mount-Lorne.dx6340848)[Old Crow](https://expedia.ca/Old-Crow.dx4020)[Ross River](https://expedia.ca/Ross-River.dx3870)[Stewart Crossing](https://expedia.ca/Stewart-Crossing.dx553248635922160812)[Tagish](https://expedia.ca/Tagish.dx3000008921)[Teslin](https://expedia.ca/Teslin.dx60716)[Upper Laberge](https://expedia.ca/Upper-Laberge.dx3000008906)[Watson Lake](https://expedia.ca/Watson-Lake.dx4047)[Whitehorse](https://expedia.ca/Whitehorse.dx4129) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/mad-service/footer/bnaBanners/BEX_Footer.jpg) ## Go further with the Expedia app Save on select hotels and earn double points when you book on the app. Our app deals help you to save on trips so you can travel more and manage it all on the go.
