Welcome to Carmacks!
Named for George Carmack, one of the discoverers of Klondike Gold, Carmacks is
located at the junction of the North Klondike and
Robert
Campbell Highways. With its ideal location, travellers can set up a base camp
from which they can explore nearby towns, situated only a few hours away including
Whitehorse, Faro,
Mayo and
Dawson City.
Carmacks itself has a lot to offer with interesting attractions such as the
Tage
Cho Hudan Interpretive Centre, where visitors can learn about the Northern
Tutchone people. Several
Agate
Trails are found within the area, taking hikers through unique topography.
