Roam through the Yukon’s magnificent and trail-less wilderness of forest and mountains.
You’ll explore and learn in the Yukon’s wild and remote unnamed mountain ranges, where you’ll climb far above tree line for awe-inspiring views and hike on open tundra.
The Yukon is the perfect training ground for mastering camping and traveling skills, especially in bear country, as well as for developing leadership skills and teamwork.
You’ll also enjoy fantastic, untapped fly-fishing and spin fishing in wild rivers that flow with the cleanest water you can find.
Hiking here can be hard work, but the rewards are worth the effort. After just 30 days, you’ll come home with the skills and know-how to lead your own backpacking trips, although you’ll always long for the freedom of the Yukon.
