Day 1 - Whitehorse to Southern Lakes Resort

Departing from Whitehorse by floatplane or shuttle (depending on the season), you arrive at the resort and check into your private cabin nestled near the lakeside at 15:00.

Late arrivals will be supplied a light in-room snack. Although part of the compound, the cabins are set far enough from the main building and other guest buildings to create a true sense of privacy. Enjoy a delicious dinner prepared with Yukon flair in the main building. In the evening, look to the sky for the incredible Northern Lights as cascading emerald greens mix with vibrant pinks and blues in a dazzling display.
