Nestled in northern Canada, Yukon is a fascinating travel destination for nature seekers yearning for exciting adventures and things to do while unwinding in nature.

To explore some of the city’s attractions, other than the Yukon River, you can make your way to Kluane National Park and Reserve, where you can marvel at gleaming lakes, magnificent mountains, and surrounding pines.
