The Ross River Travel Guide

Kaska Dena territory on the Pelly River, deep in the Yukon interior

Ross River is one of the most remote communities on the Robert Campbell Highway — a small town on the banks of the Pelly River, surrounded by wilderness on every side, and home to the Ross River Dena Council, Kaska people who have lived along this river for thousands of years. Travellers who reach Ross River tend to arrive with a sense of accomplishment and leave with a genuine appreciation for life at the edge of the accessible world.
