Yukon Government Campgrounds
Welcome to the Government of Yukon's campground system. Whether you're a first-time visitor or a long-time resident, we hope you'll enjoy our cozy campsites and spectacular mountain scenery.
Our network of 11 adventure highways will take you through some of the world's most outstanding wilderness areas. Many campgrounds have prime access to local fishing spots and walking trails. And don't pass up the chance to visit our communities as well.

Campground Availability
All Yukon Government Campgrounds are officially closed, and gates have been locked for those campgrounds with gates.
Parks staff will re-open most campgrounds in time for the Victoria Day long weekend (May 22-24, 2010). Timing will depend on snow and road conditions.
This webpage provides up-to-date news about campground openings and closures during the camping season.
