Whitehorse Ice Fishing

Live an unforgettable experience around the impressive Whitehorse lakes! You'll learn to fish in one of the best fishing locations, accompanied by a Canadian guide.

Whitehorse Ice Fishing

The day begins at 1 pm at the Sternwheeler Hotel & Conference Centre, from where we'll head to one of the many lakes in the Yukon. This territory is known for its variety of lakes and rivers, making ice fishing an ideal activity.

We will take a snowshoe walk through the area, traversing the frozen landscape. Upon arrival at the selected lake, we'll participate in Ice fishing, a traditional activity with a history of 4000 years. Upon reaching the lake in Whitehorse, attendees will drill a hole through the ice, which can be up to 1 metre thick in winter.

We will create a small bonfire to stay warm and gather around the hole to start fishing. The Yukon lakes host a variety of fish, including northern pike, lake trout, arctic grayling, and rainbow trout.

If successful in catching a fish, the guide will slice it and cook it over the fire, creating a meal from scratch.

Finally, we'll return to the starting point by 5 pm.
