A window into Yukon’s past featuring amazing dioramas of extinct ice age animals, complete skeletons of some of Beringia’s iconic animals, and a life-sized replica of the hotly debated Bluefish Caves archaeological site. It is a point of pride for us that we can use scientific controversy to immerse our visitors in Yukon’s natural heritage.
The Beringia Centre is dedicated to the presentation and preservation of the First Nations and scientific history of the vast sub-continent called Beringia. Since its opening, the Beringia Centre has greeted more than 350,000 visitors - sharing with them an appreciation for the unique ice age heritage of Yukon. In recent years, the centre has been refocusing its programs and services on building community here in Whitehorse.
