Campgrounds in the Yukon

    The Aishihik Lake Campground, operated by Yukon Parks, is located on the Aishihik Road, 42 km north of its junction with the Alaska Highway at Km 1546. It has 16 spacious, well-spaced campsites, 5 of them pull-throughs. It also has 2 boat launches and a kitchen shelter. There is no beach at normal water levels, and no playground for children. The nightly fee at Aishihik Lake Campground, as at all Yukon Parks campgrounds, is $20, and includes firewood.

    Aishihik Lake Campground is open and fully serviced from May 12 until October 2 (in 2023). It is not gated in the off-season, though, and can be used. Snow is not plowed, and all campers must register (no fee), bring their own toilet paper and firewood, and pack out their garbage.
