Frequently Asked Questions >Why Choose the Yukon?


Question:  Why choose the Yukon over other world-class wilderness destinations?


Answer:
Many places claim to have great wilderness, but few locations compare to the wilderness opportunities available in the Yukon.   The Yukon, with its population of only 32,000 people, in a territory larger than the state of California, is a sea of wilderness with small islands of humanity.  Contrarily, many locations that are advertised as wilderness, are islands of wilderness surrounded by a vast sea of humanity. The Yukon is the best of what the Canadian wilderness experience has to offer.  It has the wide-open spaces and haunting emptiness for which Northern Canada is famous, combined with the scenic beauty of the western mountains.  Join this rich landscape with a friendly and culturally sophisticated population and you have the recipe for a world-class vacation experience. The Yukon will exceed your expectations and leave you wanting to return soon!
