The Burwash Landing Travel Guide

Kluane Lake, Dall sheep, glacial river piracy, and the mountains beyond

Burwash Landing sits on the eastern shore of Kluane Lake — the Yukon's largest — with the Kluane Ranges rising straight from the water and one of the finest lake-mountain panoramas in the territory. This is a tiny community of around 100 people, home to the Kluane First Nation, with a remarkable natural history museum and some of the most exceptional road scenery in the North. This guide gathers everything you need to know before you make the drive west.
