As owners of a boutique tour company in the Yukon, co-owners Tobias and Lynn Barth were captivated by the charm of the resort nestled in the Yukon wilderness. Drawn by the warm, family-run atmosphere and the opportunity to create unforgettable experiences, they assumed management of the resort, and infused their passion for connecting with people to deliver unparalleled hospitality, and make Northern Lights Resort & Spa an experience of a lifetime.

Our Commitment
Northern Lights Resort & Spa is dedicated to preserving and protecting the natural beauty of our surroundings and operating in harmony with the environment so that future generations can continue to enjoy and benefit from the natural beauty of the land.
As part of our commitment to improving our sustainability practices between now and 2030, Northern Lights Resort & Spa has signed the Sustainable Tourism 2030 Pledge.
Low Energy Consumption
A 128-panel solar field was installed on our property which generates 55,000 kwH of energy per year. Since its installation in October 2022, up to 50% of the resort's energy consumption is solar-powered! Additionally, high-efficiency appliances, CFL and LED lights, and human manpower are used where possible to further reduce our energy consumption.
Water Conservation
We follow water-saving practices and educate guests on the importance of reducing water consumption. Guests are encouraged to take shorter showers, turn off the taps while using the sinks, and hang their towels to dry after each use to reduce wash cycles where possible. All wastewater is processed through our septic tank and sewage absorption bed, thus being cleaned and returned to the natural environment.
Earth-friendly Cleaning
Natural cleaning products are used to clean all surfaces where possible. Our personal care toiletries are also free of parabens, artificial colours, and animal-derived ingredients.
Minimal Waste
We diligently separate and recycle all waste at the resort and each chalet includes recycling and trash bins to organize waste. Our personal care toiletries also feature eco-friendly packaging that is biodegradable and made with post consumer recycled content. We also strive to avoid food waste in our operations.
Reduced Environmental Pollution
Located in the remote wilderness, we prioritize minimal light pollution to provide guests with optimal views of the starry skies, Milky Way and Northern Lights. We also minimize the trips we make with our vehicles by streamlining the tasks we perform with each trip to and from the resort.
Supporting Local
We proudly grow our own organic herbs onsite and buy most of our food from the local farmers market, or direct from certified producers. We also support the local economy by partnering with local Yukon businesses and services for all our needs and supplies. From food purchases to vehicle repairs, our operations rely on our partnership with the local community.
Tree Planting
We are committed to FireSmart practices as part of our commitment to responsible forest maintenance and mitigating the risk of wildfires. For every tree that is cut down, we plant a new one in its place. In 2023 alone, our team planted 160 trees!
Environmental Awareness and Appreciation
Our knowledgeable staff are happy to provide insights on how to enjoy the outdoors with minimal impact on the environment and wildlife. Guests can also enjoy free access to animal and plant guidebooks during their stay to learn more about the rich biodiversity surrounding the resort.
