Find the status of Yukon campgrounds and recreation sites

Last updated: November 1, 2023 at 4:15 pm

The serviced camping season ended on October 2. Some campgrounds and recreation sites now have locked gates (see below).

October through April, you may use campgrounds and recreation sites, but they are not serviced. You must bring your own toilet paper, firewood, and pack out your garbage.

No camping fees are charged between October 1 and April 30. Please register all campsite use – day or night, year-round – using the permit envelopes provided in the campground.

Sites are sorted by region and distance along the nearest highway.
