Rugged mountains that stretch out for kilometres on end in one of the Yukon's most isolated and untouched regions characterize Tombstone Territorial Park. Nestled in the centre of the territory, the park can feel so far away from civilization yet only be 100 km from Dawson City.

A roadside viewpoint that overlooks the valley surrounding the North Klondike River. To the side, you'll see mountains well over 1800–2000 m – while these are a laughing stock compared to many of the Yukon's other mountains (and neighbouring Alaska's and BC's), many of these mountains have a prominence of over 1000 metres. The result is an impressive photogenic viewpoint.
A small idyllic lake with a viewpoint along the highway, though you'll see fewer mountains here. This part of the park is also less developed and the only tourist facility is the lookout.
One of the eight components of the Tr’ondëk-Klondike , these are the remains of a Native American settlement.
Tombstone TP is, at its closest point, 64 km north of the junction between Highway 2 (Klondike Highway) and Highway 5's (Dempster Highway) southern terminus.
Read in the guideThere is one main road in the park, the Dempster Highway that runs north–south. It's the only practical way to get around the various different regions of the park.
