Why Travel Nursing in YT

Why Choose YT for Your Next Travel Nursing Destination

The Yukon is a land of stunning contrasts and untamed beauty. From the rugged peaks of the St. Elias Mountains to the gold rush charm of Dawson City, every corner of the territory tells a story. The Yukon is home to just over 40,000 people, with most living in the capital city of Whitehorse, a vibrant community filled with local art, cozy cafés, and access to awe-inspiring nature just steps from your door.



This is a place where moose wander past hospital windows, and where your days off could include dog sledding, hot springs soaking, hiking, fishing, or catching the Aurora Borealis.

Travel nursing in the Yukon is more than just a contract — it’s a cultural and professional experience like no other.

Hello Dog lovers!
The Yukon Quest
is a must-see!!

This is one of the most famous long-distance sled dog races in the world. It used to run between Whitehorse, Yukon, and Fairbanks, Alaska, but since 2023, the race has been reorganized into separate races on both sides of the border.
