About this activity
Enjoy snowmobiling, ice fishing, kicksledding and the breathtaking winter scenery from above with a sightseeing flight and see wildlife up-close at the Yukon Wildlife Preserve.
On two evenings of your choice, you’ll travel just outside the city centre, but far enough from the city lights to an idyllic Northern Lights viewing location, the AuroraCentre.
This is an eventful winter tour in the Yukon for young and young-at-heart travelers.
