Yukon Horseback Riding Adventures




Enjoy a horseback ride through the scenic country around Fox Lake or Lake Laberge, just a short drive north of Whitehorse in the Yukon. The legendary Midnight Sun provides not only long days, but a type of light that photographers dream of.

Join us for a day horseback ride, or just stop by the lakeshore and relax or cast a rod into the pristine waters where Arctic grayling and lake trout live. Watch a beaver build his dam or a bald eagle soaring high overhead. Listen to the varied sounds of the many different species of waterfowl in the area. Traveling by horseback offers a superb way to enjoy the sights, the sounds and the feel of the wilderness.

If you're looking for a longer excursion, join one of our multi-day horsepacking trips. These trips can be customized to suit your needs, and range from overnight to seven days in length. Ride to the top of a mountain for some breathtaking scenery, listen to an owl hoot from outside the glow of a cozy campfire, explore the many hidden lakes in the area, learn to pack a horse, or observe wildlife from a distance. Explore natural game trails with an experienced guide and learn the local lore and history of the region.

To expand the multi-day adventure possibilities even more, there is cabin and bunkhouse accommodations available, and "ranch stay / pack trip" combinations.
