Auriol Trail
15km , 367m eleveation
Kluane Region
The Auriol Trail is close to Haines Junction and is a popular day and beginner overnight hike. The actual trail itself does not go above tree level, but an extended hike from the trail into the alpine is highly recommended. Add 5 km and 430 m elevation gain if you hike into the alpine.
Alsek Valley/Thunder Egg Creek
14km, 215m elevation​
Kluane Region
Thunderegg Creek is a nice, short hike in Kluane, which follows along an old exploration road with open views of the Alsek Valley and surrounding mountains. There is not much elevation gain as you hike through stunted stands of aspen and balsam poplar, ending up near the base of a large cutbank of Thunderegg Creek, which holds the famous 'thundereggs' (the sphere-shaped rocks) this area is known for.
St Elias Lake Trail
8km , 120m elevation
St. Elias Lake is a short hike with great rewards. There is a backcountry campground at the lake, which is nestled between tall mountains. This trail is great for beginner backcountry camping because it is a short trail to a campground with amenities. It is also great to do with kids.
Kluane Region
Donjek Dän Zhùr route
108km , 4730m elevation
The Dän Zhùr (Donjek) route is a challenging multi-day hike that crosses a variety of terrain: tussock plateaus, mountain passes, glacier viewing and numerous creek and river crossings. The mighty Donjek Glacier near the halfway point of this route is a highlight. Weather is a major factor on this hike, which affects water levels for creek crossings.
​
This transport to the Donjek trail requires a minimum of 4 participants.
Bock's Lake
24km, 1017m elevation
Bock's Lake is tucked amongst beautiful mountains and moraines. The route up the creek is straightforward but can be tricky depending on the water levels. It is long as a day hike so camping at the lake is recommended, plus there are many side trips from the lake with incredible views.
Cottonwood
82km , 1413m elevation
This trail is a beautiful multi-day trek in the southern portion of Kluane National Park, starting and ending at either Kathleen Lake or Mush Lake Road. The trail itself is a combination of single-track trail, old mining roads, and a 4-wheel drive road. The trail traverses spectacular lakeshores, mountain passes, creek valleys, wildflower meadows and alpine plateaus. It involves multiple creek crossings, some which can be significant depending on the conditions. There are no established backcountry camping facilities, though Parks Canada does designate some parts of the trail as 'no camping zones' due to significant bear activity. Registration with Parks Canada is required. Note a large portion of the hike is along old mining roads, with limited views, though the scenery along the lakes, expansive meadows, and alpine sections of the trail (Cottonwood Pass and Dalton Pass) make up for it.
Kings Throne
15km, 1250m elevation
The King's Throne is truly a majestic site when viewed from the shores of Kathleen Lake. It is one of the more popular day hikes in Kluane National Park, with breathtaking views of the surrounding valleys and Kathleen Lake below. The route described goes to the summit, though many people opt to save their knees and stop once they reach the seat of the throne (at the top of the rock glacier, about two thirds up).
