Yukon Suspension Bridge
Admission includedStanding at the edge of the Yukon Suspension Bridge, you feel the gentle sway underfoot and hear the river churning through the canyon below. Towering spruce and pine press close on both banks, and the cool, resin-scented air carries the sound of rushing water up through the gorge. The Yukon Suspension Bridge offers a rare chance to pause above a wild river corridor and take in the scale of the surrounding boreal landscape. It is a crossing that rewards slow walkers who stop mid-span to watch the current carve its way through ancient rock.
