Yukon River Trail Marathon
The Yukon River Trail Marathon, held annually in Whitehorse, Yukon, has been running strong for over 25 years. This scenic marathon features a challenging course that begins on the Millennium Trail and winds through single-track paths to Kwanlin (Miles Canyon), Canyon City, and along the Yukon River Trail towards Chadburn Lake. Runners continue past Schwatka Lake and Hidden Lakes, finishing near the Whitehorse dam and returning alongside the Yukon River to the finish area.
The event offers a unique opportunity to experience the natural beauty of Whitehorse while tackling a demanding trail. It is organized by the Boreal Adventure Running Association and relies heavily on volunteers. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
