Whitehorse Waterfront Trolley

The Whitehorse Waterfront Trolley is a beloved heritage attraction in the capital city of the Yukon, operated by the City of Whitehorse. This charming electric streetcar runs along the scenic Yukon River waterfront, carrying passengers between downtown Whitehorse and the Rotary Peace Park on vintage heritage trolley car No. 1, a lovingly restored 1925 Perley A. Thomas electric streetcar that once operated in Porto Alegre, Brazil. The trolley runs on restored track along a scenic route that showcases the banks of the Yukon River and the surrounding wilderness, providing a unique and enjoyable way to experience Whitehorse’s beautiful riverside setting. The route passes by significant landmarks, artwork, and interpretive panels that tell the story of Whitehorse’s development from gold rush service town to the vibrant capital of Canada’s largest territory by area. Operated seasonally during the Yukon summer, the Whitehorse Waterfront Trolley is popular with both local residents and the many visitors who come to explore the Yukon’s remarkable natural and cultural heritage. A ride on the trolley is a delightful way to experience downtown Whitehorse at a relaxed pace and take in the stunning scenery of the Yukon River valley.
