AuroraCentre
Step into the night at the AuroraCentre, the largest aurora viewing site in the Yukon, engineered from the ground up for one purpose: spectacular northern lights viewing.
Built exclusively for aurora viewing
Purpose-built site – no overnight stays
Every building, path and light is designed specifically for evening aurora tours and photography, with no accommodation on site so nothing interferes with the night sky.
Prime “dry sky” micro‑climate
Located in an area with the driest climate and lowest annual precipitation in the Yukon, giving you more chances for clear, star-filled skies.
Its remote setting means no light pollution, so even subtle aurora arcs stand out against inky black horizons.
Spacious, cozy structures for every style of traveler
- Main cabin – seats up to 50 guests, perfect for warming up and sharing stories between aurora bursts.
- Two large yurts – each seats up to 50 guests, offering insulated comfort just steps from the viewing areas.
- VIP yurt – an intimate retreat for small groups, seating up to 10 guests.
- Two traditional-style tepees – each seats up to 16 guests, adding a classic northern campfire atmosphere.
A photographer’s dream playground
Free fixed-location tripods
Set up at prime viewing points so anyone can capture sharp, long‑exposure shots of the dancing sky.
Mobile tripods (by reservation)
Mobile tripods can be reserved in advance, giving you full freedom to move around the site and frame the aurora exactly how you want.
Professional photo service
Tour guides provide a professional photo service, taking portraits and candid shots under the lights so you can stay in the moment.
After each night, tour photos are available in the online shop, ready to browse and purchase once you’re back in the warmth of your hotel.
Multilingual expert guides
On site, you’re in the hands of seasoned aurora hunters.
Our guides speak English, Spanish, Japanese, Korean, and French, helping you with camera settings, aurora science, and Yukon lore in your own language.
Your night at AuroraCentre
You step out of the warm cabin into crisp Yukon air. Above you: pitch‑black, dry sky, untouched by city glow. Green arcs flicker on the horizon, then explode into bands stretching from yurt to tepee. Cameras click from free tripods, others roam with reserved mobile tripods, and your guide captures professional shots you’ll later find in the online photo shop.
