ABOUT THIS REGION  CANOEING - RIVER TRIPS

You canoeing journey begins in either Whitehorse or Carmacks and ends in Carmacks or Dawson City. Along the way you will see many relics of the historic 1898 gold rush. Or perhaps a black bear, moose or eagle will be seen along the river's edge.

Canoeing trip down the Yukon River

Camps are set up on the gravel & sand banks of the mighty river, where you can enjoy a refreshing bath. The only major interuption to the river's smooth journey is the mighty Five Finger Rapids, once a major navigational problem for the large paddler wheelers. Around the campfire you will hear about the solution found for this problem and some interesting stories about the first river travelers.
