Whitehorse and Dawson, Yukon
You probably won’t find gold but you’re in for a unique adventure if you decide to settle down in “the Klondike.”
Why Yukon?
- Well, here’s your epic Canadian adventure, completely off the beaten track!
- You’ll get to live in the breathtaking scenery and you will have a front-row seat for the seasonal Northern Lights.
- The local job market mostly revolves around the hospitality and restaurant industries.
- Whitehorse and Dawson, the main cities in Yukon, have a lovely small-town feel and locals are said to be friendly and welcoming.
Just keep in mind that…
- It’s cold, very cold in Yukon… like -40⁰C-kind-of-cold in winter. And some days, you will only get five hours of natural light, which some will find rather depressing.
- Yukon isn’t the place where you’ll get the most work opportunities.
- Getting to Yukon isn’t easy—you will have to drive, fly or take the ferry.
- Yukon has about 35,000 residents on a territory as big as Sweden, so if you like having people around, head somewhere else!
- Finding affordable housing is a major issue.

Remember that all Working Holiday permit holders must prove they have adequate insurance. We’ve been recommending Globe WHV insurance since 2005. They’ve already covered thousands of working holiday makers, to Canada and elsewhere.
