ULTIMATE NORTHERN LIGHTS YUKON

The best seat on the planet to view aurora borealis is the Yukon. Mother Nature puts on a breathtaking performance with the absolute ideal longitude and latitude from the earth’s magnetic poles (60ºN 135ºW). Spend three nights away from the city lights at Southern Lakes Resort situated amidst the boreal forest on a calm side arm of Tagish Lake. Lean back, put your feet up and take position in front of the large panoramic windows of your cabin. Let the Northern Lights unfold right before your eyes.
