The Yukon’s Premium Northern Lights Tour Experience
Nestled in the forest, 20 minutes from Whitehorse, our fully licensed, aurora cabin offers an unparalleled northern lights experience. Step inside this rustic yet elegant retreat, featuring warm wood interiors and large windows that frame breathtaking views of the Yukon wilderness.
Stretch out on one of the sofas, or relax by the cozy fireplace inside while you enjoy a glass of wine as you unwind after a day of adventure. Outside, enjoy the aurora while you roast marshmallows for your s’mores around our campfire, under the starlit sky. Our heated outhouse ensures comfort no matter the season, adding a touch of luxury to your wilderness escape. Whether you’re seeking a romantic getaway or a family adventure, our cabin promises an unforgettable night of aurora viewing in Whitehorse.
Our Northern Lights Viewing Tour is changing the aurora viewing game. Gone are the days of being huddled in an old cabin, or a canvas wall tent while you wait for the lights to come out. Now you could be sat by the stone fire place, inside our purpose built luxury cabin, sipping on a hot chocolate and Baileys as you enjoy the show out of the north facing windows. No matter how you spend your evening, it will be a northern lights viewing experience you will never forget.
With a maximum group of up to 24 guests, you will be part of a small, exclusive group, that visits the Aurora Lounge each night. There’s plenty of space to take photos without other people in the background, and our guides will also be on hand with tips and tricks to help make your photos even more memorable. With unlimited hot drinks and snacks included, your late night won’t leave you hungry
Your journey begins with a 10:00 PM pickup from your hotel in Downtown Whitehorse, followed by a scenic 20-minute drive to our heated Aurora Basecamp. After an enchanting evening under the stars, we’ll return you to your accommodations around 2:00 AM.

Important Notice
The Northern Lights are always present in the night sky, but their visibility depends on solar activity and clear skies. While we do our best to provide an optimal Northern Lights Viewing Whitehorse experience, we cannot guarantee sightings due to weather conditions.
Even with climate change, temperatures in the Canadian North can reach -30°C or colder. Please wear appropriate clothing, including layers, and cover exposed skin, particularly your hands and face, when photographing the Aurora.
