About Asi Keyi Territorial Park

Asi Keyi Territorial Park is a remote wilderness park in the southwest corner of Yukon, Canada, set within the rugged St. Elias Mountains near the border with Kluane National Park and Reserve and Alaska. The park protects a vast, roadless landscape of alpine peaks, glaciers, icefields, braided rivers, and boreal valleys that form part of a larger transboundary conservation area recognized for its wilderness character. Established to safeguard ecologically and culturally significant lands of the White River and Kluane First Nations, Asi Keyi has no developed road access, visitor centre, campgrounds, or marked trails. Access is typically by small aircraft from Haines Junction or Whitehorse, with travel inside the park limited to backcountry hiking, mountaineering, and river travel for experienced, fully self-sufficient parties. Wildlife includes grizzly and black bears, Dall sheep, mountain goats, moose, caribou, and wolves. Because the park is undeveloped, RV travellers generally use it as a scenic backdrop to a Kluane-region road trip rather than a destination to drive into.

Best time to visit Asi Keyi Territorial Park

Mid-June through early September offers the most reliable window for visiting the surrounding region, with long daylight, generally open highways, and snow-free lower elevations. July and August bring the warmest weather and the peak season for Yukon RV travel along the Alaska and Haines Highways near the park. Shoulder months of late May and September can deliver fall colours and fewer visitors but also early snow, freezing overnight temperatures, and reduced services in nearby communities. Winter access is impractical for RV travellers due to deep snow, short days, and extreme cold.

Things to do at Asi Keyi Territorial Park

  • Scenic driving on the Alaska Highway near the park Easy
    RV parking available

    The Alaska Highway between Haines Junction and Beaver Creek offers long views toward the St. Elias Mountains that form Asi Keyi. Pullouts along the route give RVers a safe place to stop, photograph peaks and icefields, and watch for wildlife.

  • Wildlife viewing in the Kluane region Easy
    RV parking available

    The highways and day-use areas bordering Asi Keyi and neighbouring Kluane National Park are among the best places in Yukon to spot grizzly bears, Dall sheep, moose, and caribou. Early morning and evening drives with binoculars are most productive.

  • Flightseeing from Haines Junction Easy
    RV parking available

    Local operators offer fixed-wing flightseeing tours over the St. Elias icefields, providing one of the few practical ways for most visitors to see the interior of Asi Keyi. Tours typically depart from Haines Junction and Silver City airstrips.

  • Hiking near Kluane Lake Moderate
    RV parking available

    Front-country trails near Kluane Lake and Haines Junction deliver alpine views toward the same mountain systems protected by Asi Keyi. Options range from short interpretive walks to full-day ridge hikes suitable for fit hikers.

  • Paddling on Kluane Lake Moderate
    RV parking available

    Kluane Lake, the largest lake in Yukon, sits just east of Asi Keyi and offers paddling, fishing, and lakeshore camping accessed directly from the Alaska Highway. Conditions can change quickly, so paddlers should stay close to shore.

  • Backcountry mountaineering and expeditions Strenuous

    Experienced, self-sufficient parties can arrange fly-in expeditions into Asi Keyi for glacier travel, ski mountaineering, and remote river trips. There are no marked routes, patrols, or rescue infrastructure, so trips require advanced planning and full wilderness skills.

  • Visit the Da Kų Cultural Centre Easy
    RV parking available

    The Da Kų Cultural Centre in Haines Junction interprets Champagne and Aishihik First Nations culture and the broader St. Elias landscape that includes Asi Keyi. The centre has a large paved lot suitable for RV parking and serves as a useful orientation stop before exploring the region.

How to get to Asi Keyi Territorial Park

Asi Keyi has no road access, so RV travellers base themselves in the Kluane region and view the park from afar. Haines Junction, the main service hub, sits roughly 150 km (about 1.5 to 2 hours) west of Whitehorse via the Alaska Highway, and Whitehorse itself is the nearest major airport for fly-and-rent trips. From Haines Junction, the Alaska Highway continues northwest toward Beaver Creek and the Alaska border, passing close to the park's northern flank. Drivers should plan for long distances between fuel stops, frost heaves and rough pavement on northern highways, and mountain weather that can change quickly, and should confirm RV length and weight suitability before crossing any secondary gravel roads.
