Riding in the Yukon, Canada
November 24th, 2012
Is the weather getting you down? Looking for some visual escape? Well, this might dull the pain, even for just a few minutes – “Endless miles of flowing singletrack, pristine boreal forests, glacial rivers, long summer days, rich history, warm-hearted locals… This is mountain biking in Canada. This is the Yukon. The Yukon Territory is located in Canada’s wild north-west, bordering Alaska. Famous for the Klondike Gold Rush of the 1800s, the outdoor-loving locals have taken advantage of the abandoned trails beaten by the prospectors and turned them into their own kind of gold; mountain biking gold!
With around 800km of trails in the city limits of Whitehorse, the capital of the Yukon, you won’t ride the same piece of trail twice on this week-long mountain bike adventure in Canada. To find out more information visit mountainbikeworldwide.com/yukon
