Summer & Autumn at Blachford Lake Lodge

Summer season runs June 1-August 15, and Autumn Aurora season runs August 15-October 13 each year. 

Our summer season is full of:

• Midnight sun
• Outdoor adventure (we have canoes, kayaks, SUP boards, fat bikes, hiking, swimming, boats, and world class fishing)
• An amazing float plane ride to our paradise 100km east of Yellowknife
• Bonfires 
• S'mores in our Tipi
• Our famous outdoor hot tub
• Our lakefront wood fired sauna
• World class hospitality

During the summer season, there is no true darkness at 62.2 degrees north, so there is no visible aurora in the sky. Instead we celebrate the midnight sun in all its glory by spending as much time outside exploring the land as we can! All of our summer packages include access to our fully stocked bar, delicious meals and wonderful guides. 

Come August, darkness begins to return at night, as does the aurora! We invite you to join us for spectacular aurora viewing without the cold temperatures. It's a lesser known season for aurora viewing, but just as spetacular as the winter season, as you can enjoy:

• Aurora reflections off a calm lake (weather permitting of course!)
• Our AuroraWatch service nightly
• Outdoor adventure (we have canoes, kayaks, SUP boards, fat bikes, hiking, swimming - if you're brave past mid-August!, boats, and world class fishing)
• An amazing float plane ride to our paradise 100km east of Yellowknife
• Bonfires 
• S'mores in our Tipi
• Our famous outdoor hot tub
• Our lakefront wood fired sauna
• World class hospitality

Please check out our packages for both Summer Adventure & Fishing, and Autumn Aurora viewing.
