Camping in Yukon

Yukon's camping inventory clusters around the Whitehorse area, the Klondike Highway corridor, Kluane National Park and Reserve, the Tombstone Territorial Park area on the Dempster Highway, and the Tagish/Atlin border lakes south of Whitehorse. Yukon Government campgrounds operate a network of basic frontcountry sites; private campgrounds and roadhouses fill in along the highway routes and in the Whitehorse region.

Camping season runs late May through early September, with daylight stretching close to 22 hours near the summer solstice. Many remote campgrounds along the Dempster, the Top of the World Highway, and the Robert Campbell Highway have no cell service or potable water — trip planning should account for fuel and supply gaps. The Yukon is bear country throughout; proper food storage is required at all sites.
