There's no doubt about it, Aussies love a good road trip! Yukon Territory is a driver's dream – an exhilarating combination of picturesque scenery, historic communities, and roadside wildlife. It's a land of friendly characters, endless summer sunshine and awe-inspiring wilderness. Read on for four reasons why Yukon road trips will blow your mind.

1. Road-tripping across Yukon was listed as the ultimate Canadian RV adventure in the list of 100 Things to do in Canada Before You Die, published in the summer edition of Australia's best-selling outbound travel magazine, International Traveller. Recognised ahead of 700 nominated experiences throughout Canada, Yukon's ribbons of highway and breath-taking wilderness were touted as 'unmissable'. Need we say more?
   
   
2. With almost 5000 kilometres of roads to explore, Yukon's fly/drive itineraries are among the best in the world. From gold-rush history to vast rivers and untouched landscapes, every Yukon route is guaranteed to earn you bragging rights back home!
   
   
3. Yukon's Alaska Highway nudges alongside the UNESCO site of Kluane National Park, a staggering collection of Canada's five tallest mountains and the largest ice-fields outside the North and South poles. This historic highway celebrates its 75th birthday in 2017.
   
   
4. The Dempster Highway takes you far off the beaten track along an unsealed road that passes through diverse geological terrain through the iconic Tombstone Territorial Park, and on past the Arctic Circle to Canada's northern coast.
