On the Ice Road to the White Huskies in Inuvik: The Itinerary
Day 1: Arrival
Upon arrival in Whitehorse, your guide will welcome you. On your way to the hotel, you will experience the highlights of Whitehorse on a city tour and get to know its special charm. In the afternoon, get together in your travel group and get information about the tour programme. The rest of the afternoon and evening you can use to explore the city on your own, whether that be for shopping or museums. Look forward to the eventful days that lie ahead of you!
Day 2: Whitehorse - Dawson City
Prior to the late 1950’s, the only way to travel to Dawson City in summer was on a majestic paddlewheeler like the SS Klondike. Today, we’ll cover the 550km distance in just a few hours. For the majority of this journey, you will follow the Yukon River Valley and be enchanted by the sheer expanse of the landscape. In the morning, stop for a coffee at the popular Braeburn Lodge, which is known for its giant cinnamon rolls. In the next few hours, you will drive along the Klondike Highway past some small villages and indigenous settlements. As you make your way to your destination, you will have the best view of the famous Five Fingers Rapids rock formation. About an hour from Dawson, you will make a last stop and enjoy the views from the Tintina Trench Viewpoint, which offers you a generous view of the stunning Yukon and its mountainous landscape. After a hearty dinner, look out for the magical Northern Lights, which often dance directly over the city in the night sky.

Day 3: Dawson City
Fuel up with a delicious breakfast ready for a thrilling day exploring the city of Dawson. Home to the world’s greatest Gold Rush, some 50,000 gold seekers arrived here in 1898 making Dawson City the largest town west of Winnipeg and North of Seattle (USA) at that time. The special charm and romance of this place is still noticeable today and is sure to enchant you. Unpaved streets and boardwalks characterise the cityscape and make it easy for you to imagine how it was in the past. Explore Bonanza Creek Road, a place where gold was discovered in 1896 and made the city famous. In the evening, share your experiences with your fellow travelers in the small authentic bars of the city and let the day end while relaxing with a drink in hand.
Day 4: Dawson City - Eagle Plains
This day will be full of nature and breathtaking scenery. You start early in the morning on one of the largest Canadian roads — the Dempster and head towards Eagle Plains. The drive to Eagle Plains is incredibly scenic, particularly as you cross the Tombstone Territorial Park with its rugged peaks to the west. Breathtaking views of the wild Yukon are offered by the Ogilvie Mountains, their jagged peaks piercing the clouds. On your way, look out for wild animals such as foxes, wolves, or caribou. A picnic is served for lunch on an idyllic campsite next to a creek. In the late afternoon, you will arrive at Eagle Plains, which is the only place for miles around. Warm-up in your hotel and spend your evening watching the Northern Lights dance across a clear sky.
Day 5: Eagle Plains - Inuvik
Look forward to a very special highlight on this day, as you will cross through the Arctic Circle. This unique experience will be remembered for a long time, for how many people can say they've done that? Capture the special moment in a photo and then continue your journey north of the Arctic Circle. During this drive towards Inuvik, you will marvel at the impressive landscape that passes you by. A mountain range and two rivers provide the backdrop to your adventure and run through the vast wilderness of the north. The destination of today's trip is the town of Inuvik, with a young community and ancient history. The natives of this country, the Inuit, moved here from the coast and the nearby traditional village of Aklavik in the 1950s. A short tour of the village on the way to the hotel will give you some insights into this culture, and in the evening you will have time to explore the area on foot.
Day 6: On the Ice Road to the Arctic Ocean
Another day marked by the history and culture of Canada follows during your journey through the far north. Head northeast along the Arctic Ocean to the village of Tuk. Here you will be greeted by a local guide who will introduce you to life in this beautiful yet desolate place and will tell you interesting stories about the people, the culture, and the landscape in the area. Immerse yourself in the life of this northern community and get to know the local inhabitants, who will b happy to talk about their way of life. In the late afternoon you return to Inuvik and relax at the end of the day.
Day 7: Aklavik Visit
You will reach the municipality of Aklavik on the Arctic coast, which in winter can only be reached via the ice road, quite literally driving on the frozen waters of the Mackenzie River and the Arctic Ocean. You will return to the city of Inuvik and take full advantage of the afternoon and evening for your own interests and explore the surroundings on your own. Don't worry, we will ensure that you still have plenty of time to visit the famous white huskies in Inuvik before you leave!
Day 8: By Plane to Whitehorse
From Inuvik, you will fly back to Whitehorse, where the travel programme will end. You will start your journey home with many unique memories under your belt.

Additional Information:
The order of tours and activities within this itinerary may vary due to weather conditions and other contributing factors that must be taken into account by the guides when planning your tour. You will receive the exact order of activities once you arrive on site. The far north can have fluctuating and unpredictable weather with very strong temperature differences. The safety of guests and animals comes first, and for this reason, we reserve the right to change the itinerary and intensity of activities if and when needed. This involves both adjustments due to insufficient snow (meaning we cannot drive the sleds) or too much snow (snowstorms and extreme cold can cause accidents and various other problems). The required adjustments and fallback options in rare cases are based on the day-to-day conditions and can be compensated by shorter or longer daily stages, alternative accommodations, or even single day trips. In extremely rare cases we may organise alternative transport (ie. cars, quad bikes, etc). Feel free to contact us if you would like a more detailed assessment of this tour and travel period.The service providers and tour providers always perform their services in compliance with and in accordance with the official requirements and requirements applicable at the time of stay.
