Bove Island Viewpoint
Bove Island
A viewpoint on the South Klondike Highway overlooking a windy bay of Tagish Lake and its small island, with mountains reflected in the water.
The Bove Island viewpoint lies on the stretch of South Klondike Highway south of Carcross, overlooking a wind-swept arm of Tagish Lake. Bove Island in the lake is surrounded by bright blue water and snowy mountains. It is one of the most classic roadside photo stops along the highway. The viewpoint has a parking lot, and a stop of 15 to 20 minutes is enough. It can be combined with Tutshi Lake, Carcross and Emerald Lake into a one-day self-drive route.
