About Ross River Airport
Ross River Airport is a small regional airport serving Ross River, a community in east-central Yukon at the meeting point of the Ross and Pelly rivers. It supports scheduled passenger service, charter flights and general aviation for the surrounding region.
The airport lies about 2 km south of the community and operates a single air terminal building with one gravel runway, 09/27, measuring roughly 1,558 metres in length. Its compact layout keeps check-in, boarding and arrivals close together.
Ross River is reached by road along the Robert Campbell Highway, and the historic Canol Road meets the highway near the community. Ground transport options are limited, so many travellers pre-arrange transfers, a rental vehicle or a chauffeur.
As the aviation link for the Kaska Dena community and the surrounding backcountry, the airport connects Ross River with Whitehorse and the rest of Yukon, supporting local travel, tourism and resource activity.
