Arctic Day: Evening Aurora Viewing

Sightseeing  :  Canada  :  Yukon Territory  :  Whitehorse  :  Nature & Wildlife

As one of the most sought-after Northern experiences, a Yukon winter vacation is only complete with a viewing of the aurora borealis cascading across the Yukon night sky.A chemical light reaction caused when solar energy interacts with the Earth’s atmosphere, producing dramatic, dancing waves of green light from one horizon to another. The Northern Lights have captivated viewers since the beginning of time, as evidence by the many Yukon First Nation legends they’ve inspired.

Enjoy a Aurora viewing tour at a 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.
