🧊 Yellowknife is really the most suitable place in Canada to see the aurora, there are about 360 days a year can see the aurora, we got off the plane that night and went straight to the camp to meet the aurora explosion, green purple and pink aurora band flashing in the night sky, super large, the naked eye can be clearly seen, really lucky! It is recommended to participate in the group, especially to see the aurora is in the mountains to see!

Scenic spot recommendation

Yellow Knife Town is very small, divided into downtown and oldtown. The two main hotels are located in downtown, which is a place where tourists are concentrated. There are grocery stores, shoppers and souvenir shops around the neighborhood about 10 minutes' walk, which is very convenient for you to buy some souvenirs and daily necessities. It is also possible to walk from the hotel to visit the museum and the Legislative Yuan, which is very local characteristics. oldtown is the local community where indigenous people live, many lovely small houses are connected together, and the tour guide will lead the tour by car. It takes about 20 minutes to walk from oldtown to downtown.

Every night, of course, it is essential to follow the light, in addition to highly recommended snowmobiling and dog sledding, snowmobiling for about an hour, led by the instructor, driving the motorcycle on the Great Slave Lake; Dog sledding about 14 dogs pull four people, 15 minutes or so, in the small snow-capped forest shuttle, as if in the movie, the scenery is very beautiful. Next to the camp, you can roast your own marshmallows, play on the snow slide, and the white snow is also very much out.

Aurora hunting

This is the easiest place in the world to see the aurora!! Canadian Yellow Knife I want to give him Amway to the world!! The probability of seeing the aurora is super high! The year before to Alaska to chase the aurora, chasing a week did not catch up, has been a regret to go to the yellow knife three days, two nights saw the aurora, and even one night of the aurora are particularly strong!! The Yellow Knife is inland, so the weather conditions are more stable, and the probability of seeing the aurora will be higher than in northern Europe!

Every night 9-10 o 'clock set out to follow the light, each time 4 hours, we participated in a total of three nights to see the light (2 Tianshan mountain chase, 1 day log cabin chase), including the hotel transfer, there are hot tea hot chocolate in the car, very lucky to see the super beautiful aurora and aurora small eruption on the first two days, the third cloudy day decided not to go. The driver of our group who also acts as a photographer will have a professional camera to take photos for you for free, and then AirDrop it to you.

Ice fishing at Great Slave Lake

The owner of the snow resort will dig the hole in advance, set the net, and collect the net when the guests come. Guests cannot participate in the ice fishing, because fishing in Canada requires legal documents (when you apply for the group, be sure to ask what kind of ice fishing method) Aurora Story is always a fact-telling activity. The fish freezes quickly, you can pick it up and take a photo. The main point is in the back, eat the fish link, wild cold water fish, the taste is really awesome, recommend the famous yellow knife white fish (white fish), very delicious. By professional personnel demonstration, caught fish can be held for photos. Lunch is a ball of fish caught and eaten in the cabin. It's super cold! I wore two down jackets altogether.

Dog sled

Yellow knife must experience the project! We played on Kam Lake. He has over 200 Alaskans! You can see a lot of big dogs, one sled can seat four people, there are 16 sled dogs. The dog went off in the middle and stopped to play with the branches. Sleigh slide about 10-15 minutes, be sure to wear a good mask mask and hat, face wind is particularly cold! After we finished, we also played with Maya (black Alaska) for a long time, and special relatives have been attached. It doesn't look like the usual Alaskan, it's slimmer, but it is. The dogs are well taken care of, looking small but strong, and can't wait to rush out to play although driving but in fact the dogs know the way, just need to step on the brake when there is a situation.

Food recommendation
Because Yellowknife is small and inaccessible, there are only a handful of restaurants in town.
I recommend bullock's bistro, which focuses on fried and grilled fish. The ingredients are very fresh and the portions are very sufficient.
Chinese food is more recommended red apple red apple, dishes taste good, there are many choices.
For fast food, you can go to a&w near the hotel, doordash can also order McDonald's to deliver the hotel, and you can also try the hotel's own restaurant, but ubereats is not available in the area, so the options are limited.
