Carcross

Carcross is best known within Yukon for the Carcross Desert, an expanse of windblown dunes often described as the world’s smallest desert. The settlement occupies the narrow passage between Bennett and Nares lakes, amid the broad glacial terrain of southern Yukon. It is home to the Carcross/Tagish First Nation, whose cultural presence is expressed through local art and community life. The historic White Pass & Yukon Route railway runs through Carcross, recalling the transport corridor developed during the Klondike Gold Rush.
