Caribou Crossing, home of the "Museum of Yukon Natural History", specializes in serving up a fresh, hot BBQ lunch daily. Be sure to stop by for a homemade meal and stick around for one of many onsite activities. They offer dogcart rides with a fleet of local huskies, gold panning, and an extensive gift shop featuring the finest local Yukon-made artwork and gifts.

Nice clean place to visit, BBQ chicken was great, loved feeding the animals in the petting zoo, the large building with the taxidermy animals was a great view - especially the super-duper large polar bear!

Driving along the road amid mountains and water, and all of a sudden come to Carcross Desert which is a huge "sandbox", with very fine sand, Good place to stop and get out to stretch and walk in the sand, there is a lot of it.

How nice to find a visitor centre with nice staff who actually want to help visitors with words instead of just pointing at racks of leaflets get your passport stamped and sign the visitors book

First, visiting the old train depot is worth the stop in itself, but add the Old General Store across the street with the best “freshly made waffle cones” with your favorite ice cream and you’ve made an even greater choice. Just a few steps away is a village of stores/shops featuring many great Alaskan craftsman as well as great food/drink choices - and a great restaurant (Bistro) too. I sampled popcorn, ice cream, food at the Bistro, bakery items all while visiting the various artisians booths. This will be a regular stop for me anytime I’m traveling from Skagway to Whitehorse or even as a destination to turn around if I don’t have time to go all the way to Whitehorse.

Destination Carcross. From its astonishing scenery – including the sandy Bennett Beach – to the Carcross Commons artisans’ boutiques and the Montana Mountain world-class mountain biking and hiking trails, Carcross will ravish all. Explore the historical downtown or stop by for dinner or a coffee while the kids are having fun at the playground! Carcross Commons opened mid-May to early September. Scenery available year round!
