Surrounded by an endless wilderness of mountains, lakes, and rivers; Whitehorse is a place for adventurers and hardy, resourceful people. There are hundreds of kilometers of mountain bike trails from quick after work rips to all-day mission. Not to mention, endless backcountry to explore literally at your doorstep, in a small town with big city services. Summers under the midnight sun and winters of world-class cross-country and back country skiing; wait…extensive networks of groomed single-track fat bike riding too.
