THE PHENOMENAL NORTHERN LIGHTS THROUGH THE NIGHT
The early pioneers came to Dawson City in search of gold in the ground. Today’s visitors look up into the night sky for a stunning natural treasure.
Great swirls of green, fringed with purple, career through the night sky. Looming almost menacingly towards you before twisting away in a great plume over the giant fir trees on the horizon. It’s a phenomenon, literally, and it must have been just as impressive to the tough frontiersmen who first visited the Yukon and precipitated the infamous Klondike Gold Rush.
Visit the Aurora Inn during your luxury, tailor-made holiday to Canada and you’ll find the Aurora Borealis – the Northern Lights – are no less impressive nowadays. Dawson City, on the other hand, is considerably more civilised. The Aurora Inn stands on 5th Avenue and Harper Street – giving you easy access to the city’s shops, restaurants, Dawson Historical Complex and various cultural and historic gold mining attractions.
