Lower Laberge Village

Lower Laberge Village is an abandoned settlement on the Yukon River, accessible by floatplane from Whitehorse. In its heyday it was a busy community serving winter trappers and summer river travellers.

Today the site marks a popular put-in point for paddlers heading downstream, with a beach suitable for landing floatplanes and staging canoe or kayak expeditions.

The location serves as a launching point for multi-day river journeys, with the stretch continuing roughly 70 miles (112 km) downstream toward Little Salmon Village.

Campers arrive to find a remote, historic setting where the only signs of the former village's lively past remain as quiet reminders along the riverbank.
