What's this trip about?

    Known as The Land of the Midnight Sun, Yukon Territory is also the land of Canada's highest mountain peaks, legendary northern parks, the world's largest non-polar ice fields, several Canadian Heritage Rivers, and healthy, abundant wildlife. Yukon's jaw-dropping natural features are what set this place apart, with at least twenty mountains in the southwest exceeding 4,000 metres, and a handful exceeding 5,000 metres. The territory is dotted with countless scenic lakes and over 70 canoeable wilderness rivers including the mighty Yukon River, the third longest river in North America.

View Profile

Great Canadian Trails is the active Canadian holiday specialist, offering unique hiking and cycling adventure packages from coast to coast… to coast. Experience charming communities and changing landscapes at handlebar level, paddle along dramatic shorelines and hike rugged trails with the support of our expert local team.

On our guided hikes, we do things a little differently. On iconic backpacking trails, we literally take the weight off your shoulders with pack support and food drops.

On our self guided trips we take care of reserving charming accommodation and moving your main luggage everyday so that you can explore at your own pace with only a daypack. Plus, all participants on a self guided tour receive comprehensive maps and custom route notes with helpful information on the best places to visit, eat, and explore each day.

Canadian trails are now within reach for all active travellers.
