Review: Bradt Travel Guide Yukon

Yukon (Bradt Travel Guide Yukon)

If you are lucky enough to be planning a trip to the Yukon in Canada, the Yukon guidebook by Bradt Travel Guides (author Polly Evans) will be of tremendous help.

Yukon is one of nature’s paradise in Canada’s North. It has spectacular snow-capped mountains, beautiful clear lakes, waterfalls and amazing wildlife, from bears, moose and caribou. It is the perfect place if you are seeking solace away from civilization and want to explore the natural environment. It is also a sought-after and ideal area to go hiking, fishing, canoeing and other wilderness activities.

This guidebook gives lots of interesting historical stories to give an insight into the Yukon’s traditions and culture. You can also read up on geography and climate, as well as when to visit to experience the amazing Northern Lights. In my opinion, it benefits greatly from the beautiful color photographs that make this guidebook very attractive to look at. The book provides suggested itineraries of popular trips and generally gives lots of practical tips on travel money, health and safety, tour operators, festivals and events, shopping, accommodation and whatever else you may need to make your trip successful.

The book covers in great detail places like Whitehorse, The Alaska Highway, Kluane National Park and Reserve, Skagway and the South Klondike Highway, Dawson City, The North Klondike Highway and the Silver Trail.

So, if you are thinking of an unforgettable trip to this beautiful part of Canada, whether to pan for gold or paddle in the wilderness, the Yukon guidebook would certainly provide you with all the essential information and more to make your planning stage easy and enjoyable.
