Experience Canada Like Never Before: Must-Do Activities

06 Marvel at the Northern Lights

We’ve all seen pictures, but far fewer of us have actually experienced the visual wonder of an aurora borealis. To view the Northern Lights in Canada, plan a trip from October to March when there more hours of darkness. Most locals suggest going to areas in northern Canada during the winter months to get the best views. Whitehorse in the Yukon has hotels that cater specifically to those seeking the Northern Lights. In the Northwest Territories, try traveling to Yellowknife or Tuktoyaktuk for beautiful views. In northern Manitoba, seek out one of the companies in Churchill that specialize in Northern Lights tours.
