As one of the most sought-after Northern experiences, a Yukon vacation is only complete with a viewing of the aurora borealis cascading across the Yukon night sky. We invite you to join us at our custom built Aurora viewing location, far from the lights of the city, so you can experience the Northern Lights for yourself – and create your own legends.
Our location is very unique and our family are our dogs. We do have over 100 friendly and lovable dogs on site. "We are a place for people who love dogs". It is important that you are very comfortable around dogs to fully enjoy this experience. We are located outside the city light pollution so northern lights are visible directly overhead of our lodge. No need to drive anywhere. In addition to that we are located at the shores of the Takhini River and for as long as the river is not frozen (until late October) there is a chance to get mirror pictures of the Northern Lights.
The drive from Whitehorse to Haines Junction and Kluane National Park takes you through the heart of the Yukon wilderness.

When we arrive in Haines Junction, our first stop is the Parks Canada interpretive centre where we can learn a little bit more about Kluane National Park, and the worlds largest non polar ice field within it. After a quick stop at the bakery, we will continue driving along the edge of Kluane, soaking in the mountain views, to Sheep Mountain and Soldier's Summit. Here we will have a short, easy walk to an incredible viewpoint. This spectacular drive will have you in awe as we explore the Kluane region
