On your feet - Start from Little Atlin Lodge - after a 2 hour hike up to White Mountain, enjoy a 360° view of the beautiful landscape. Or you may want to take a stroll on the old Atlin Road with good views of Little Atlin Lake. Your chances to see mountain goats are high! - Take a short or a longer drive to meet starting points for various hikes, for example in the Atlin, Carcross or Whitehorse areas.
On the water We rent power boats and canoes. By car - Little Atlin Lodge is situated in the heart of the Southern Lakes Region, making it your convenient starting point for excursions in (almost) every direction: Atlin, Teslin, Whitehorse and attractions nearby, Carcross - White Pass - Skagway, Alaska... Other
activities Summer attractions ...May. The birds are back: waterfowl, singing birds, predatory birds. The ice on the lake breaks during the second half of the month (the snow has all melted by the end of April at the latest). It is relatively easy to see wildlife, because the trees don't have their leaves yet. Late sunsets create "golden evenings".
...July. The nights continue to be bright. Summer has arrived! Fireweed, the Yukon territorial flower, is in bloom everywhere. The lake is warming up quickly and on a hot day invites you to a refreshing swim.
...August. During the first half of the month you might still
be able to go for a swim. The wild berries are ripening now. The nights are getting dark again from around August 10. Sunsets and clouds offer good photography opportunities.
...October. Transition month between fall and winter. You will
definitely need a toque on your hike! Are you an avid photographer? You are
going to like the special fall light, the last colors of the season, the first
"snow and ice decorations"... |

Boating - explore the lake or go fishing on Little Atlin Lake.
...June. Enjoy the bright evenings and nights! The lake is open, the vegetation is exploding, wildflowers are in bloom. Days may get pretty hot during the second half of the month.
...September. It's time for the beautiful fall colors and for sometimes spectacular skies. Days are warm, nights
are cool, you might see an occasional northern light. The second half of the month is a good time for watching wildlife.
