Located at kilometer 1403 of the Alaska Highway in Whitehorse, Yukon Territory—near the junction of the South Klondike Cutoff that connects to the historic Klondike Gold Rush route—Caribou RV Park serves travelers navigating one of the most legendary road journeys in North America while providing a comfortable and well-appointed base for exploring the natural and cultural resources of the Yukon's largest city and the surrounding boreal wilderness. The Alaska Highway's international character draws a global community of road travelers through Whitehorse each summer, and Caribou RV Park's highway-adjacent position on this iconic route gives it a natural role as a gathering point for the overlanding, RV, and adventure travel community passing through the Yukon. Full-hookup sites with electrical service, water, and sewer connections accommodate the range of vehicle configurations common to Alaska Highway travelers, from small camper vans to large Class A motorcoaches. Laundry facilities, clean showers and restrooms, a dining option, a general store stocked with essentials, Wi-Fi access, a dump station, firewood, and bike rentals give guests the practical resupply and comfort infrastructure needed after stretches of the remote Alaska Highway north and south of Whitehorse. Walking trails and a lake on the property provide a natural recreation option within the campground grounds, and the Spa facility adds a relaxation amenity suited to travelers who have covered significant distance on northern highways. Whitehorse, the capital and only city of the Yukon Territory, provides cultural and heritage resources disproportionate to its population for guests spending more than a single overnight in the territory. The S.S. Klondike National Historic Site preserves a sternwheeler that plied the Yukon River during the early 20th century freight era on the river, and the Yukon Transportation Museum and MacBride Museum of Yukon History document the territory's gold rush heritage, Indigenous culture, and wilderness exploration history with significant collections. Miles Canyon, accessed from Whitehorse, is the dramatic basalt-walled canyon on the Yukon River where gold rush prospectors once ran dangerous rapids before a tramway was constructed to bypass them. The Yukon Wildlife Preserve north of Whitehorse provides a structured wildlife viewing environment where caribou, moose, wood bison, Dall sheep, muskox, and other Yukon species are observable at predictable proximity—a valuable option for Alaska Highway travelers who want guaranteed wildlife encounters alongside the more incidental observations possible on the highway itself. The Carcross area, accessible south of Whitehorse via the South Klondike Highway, features the Carcross Desert—one of the world's smallest deserts—as well as the historic Carcross community, the White Pass and Yukon Route railway heritage, and exceptional mountain scenery along the Bennett Lake corridor. Caribou RV Park is open through the Yukon's summer travel season, typically from late May through early September when the Alaska Highway is fully accessible and Whitehorse's summer daylight—approaching 20 hours near the solstice—supports extended outdoor activity throughout the evening hours. The June-through-August peak period represents the highest Alaska Highway travel volume, and advance reservations for Whitehorse-area campgrounds are recommended for travelers whose itinerary requires a specific date. The Northern Lights viewing season begins in late August and extends through the winter for guests who return or extend their stay into the shoulder season.

This was a newer RV park. We got in late at night and the camp sites were easy to get into, good size and flat, so took no time to set up. The management personal was very helpful and friendly. I recommend if you're traveling through its a great stop. The price was good also.
