Yukon River Boat Tour Through Miles Canyon

5.0(7)Rated 5.0 out of 5 from 7 reviews3 hBy North Country Outdoor Adventures
Yukon River Boat Tour Through Miles Canyon

About this activity

Experience beautiful Miles Canyon from the water! We will depart the boat launch on Schwatka Lake and boat upstream through the amazing basalt cliffs of Miles Canyon, past Canyon City, and on up the blue-green headwaters of the incredible Yukon River. See bears, moose, loons, beavers and more from the boat and watch the city disappear behind us; it will quickly become apparent why Whitehorse is known as “The Wilderness City!” Bottled water included.

The boat is an 18 ft Alumarine, Canadian made and very rugged. Perfect for the Yukon River, nimble and able to handle all water conditions.

NOTE: This tour is generally private and start times are flexible. The company is very small and often tours will only be available in the evening, to accommodate a full day of fishing during the day. Morning and early afternoon bookings may be possible, but the start time may be delayed to the evening if required to accommodate a full day of work! Your understanding is appreciated.
