Yukon River Trail Marathon

The Yukon River Trail Marathon is an annual running event held in Whitehorse, Yukon, celebrating over 25 years since its establishment in 1999. The marathon features a challenging and scenic course that begins on the Millennium Trail and winds through single-track paths to Kwanlin (Miles Canyon), Canyon City, and along the Yukon River Trail towards Chadburn Lake. Runners continue past Schwatka Lake and Hidden Lakes, finishing near the Whitehorse dam and returning alongside the Yukon River to the finish area. The race offers a unique opportunity to experience the natural beauty of Whitehorse and is supported by a dedicated volunteer team and local sponsors.
