Most residents of the far-north territory of Yukon live here in Whitehorse, its capital city. And they'll seize any opportunity to get outside and take in the region's breathtaking wilderness beauty, whether they prefer hunting, angling or cheering on (or participating in) the annual Yukon Quest sled-dog race.

Whitehorse Fishway

Reviewed By annhappy2016 - Chesterfield, United Kingdom

Saw this briefly as oart of a city tour ru by Northern Tales. Not much to see but fascination that it is so long, but at least Whitehorse has made the effort to help salmon migrate. Sad to hear that there are so fewer salmon around these days.

S.S. Klondike

Reviewed By jima800

This historic old Sternwheeler shows you what it must have been like to travel in the days of the Klondike and Alaska Gold Rush. They have guided and self guided ours and both are great. The days of the gold rush must have been amazing and our ancestors that led the way must have been amazing and courageous individuals.. Be sure to watch the video for a good overview of what it was like.

If you are looking for quality Canadian made products both native and non native the North End Gallery is for you. They have an outstanding collection of art and everyday practical goods. Me wife and I both purchased items that were both unique and hard to find.

Yukon Suspension Bridge

Reviewed By 770alw - Palm Springs, United States

the bridge is located only a few kilometres from downtown Whitehorse. It is easily accessible. There are good views up and down the Yukon River. Once across the bridge there are a number of easy to moderate hiking trails.
