Additional Notes:

Latest update:  17 February 2026

  • Please report trail conditions after your ride…
    You can send trail condition reports using the form on this page, or you can contact us by phone or text to 867 667 7680, by e-mail to klonsnow@gmail.com, or by messaging us on Facebook. The trail conditions listed above are only as up to date as riders like you help us make them.
  • Respect all trail users…
    The vast majority of the trails in the Yukon are considered “multi-use”. This means they are open to snowmobiles, skiers, dog sleds, ATVs, bikers, hikers, horses, and just about everything in between. Please respect all trail users, and slow down and give extra room when passing.
  • Wheeled vehicles are not allowed on any of the multi-use trails from November 1st through March 31st each year… Includes (but not limited to) cars, trucks, ATVs on wheels and side by sides on wheels. Each winter our volunteers spend hundreds of hours grooming trails, and it only takes one wheeled vehicle powering through to shred a trail’s snow base and ruin it for everyone else. If you see a wheeled vehicle on a multi-use trail in Whitehorse between November 1st and March 31st please note the license plate and any other distinguishing features and phone the City of Whitehorse trouble line at 867 667 2111, it’s available 24/7.
  • Please give way to groomers…
    Groomers are far heavier and less maneuverable than most other sleds on the trail. Our groomers and trail crews are all volunteers and they may be out on any of the trails at any hour. For the safety of both yourself and our volunteers please slow down and give way.
  • For gate access call 867 667 7680.  Please don’t push, pull and wreck the gates. If you need access there are keys available, all you need to do is call.
  • Interested in Grooming? Trail repairs? We can always use your help! Please check out or Volunteer page for more information.
  • Looking for a riding buddy?  Post it on our Facebook page, www.facebook.com/klondikesnowmobile!
