Aurora borealis and fall colours in the Yukon
Southern Lakes Resort’s stunning remote location, far away from the city lights of Whitehorse, means it’s an ideal Northern Lights viewing destination in the Yukon. During late summer and fall, the Yukon landscape comes alive with colour — tree leaves change to hues of yellow and orange, and the brilliant aurora sparkles in the clear, dark sky.
Four nights of self-guided Northern Lights viewing
Stay in a cozy log cabin overlooking Tagish Lake in the Yukon's Southern Lakes region
Opportunities to get out on the water (fishing, canoeing, sightseeing)
Access to beautiful hiking and ATV trails that start near the resort
