...living the urgency and excitement of the start of the Yukon Quest created an unforgettable experience, my favourite winter adventure memory. If you are looking for a true "Canadian" adventure, the REAL THING, consider attending the Yukon quest. The pageant, the scenery, the dogs, the people, the excitement will change your opinion of winter in the north forever.

Since 1984, the Yukon Quest has drawn thousands of visitors to Yukon and Alaska to witness the excitement and camaraderie of this epic 1,000 mile international race by dog team across pristine wilderness landscape.
If you are looking for a unique family vacation, love dogs, mush yourself or are looking to enjoy a new winter sport, the Yukon Quest will give you the adventure of a lifetime!
Join us in Whitehorse, Yukon, on February 2, 2013 for the start of the 30th Yukon Quest 1,000 Mile International Sled Dog Race!
