Kluane (electoral district)

Kluane is a territorial electoral district of Yukon that has been represented in the Yukon Legislative Assembly since 1974.

The district was established in 1974, when the Yukon Territorial Council was expanded from seven to 12 members as a prelude to the creation of the new legislative assembly. It is named after Kluane National Park, which lies within the riding.

As one of Yukon's eight rural ridings, Kluane represents all Yukon communities and residents along the Alaska Highway west of Whitehorse and south to Alaska. This includes the communities of Haines Junction, Burwash Landing, Destruction Bay, Beaver Creek, and Mendenhall, as well as parts of the Ibex and Macpherson-Grizzly valleys. It is situated on the traditional territory of the Kluane First Nation, the Champagne and Aishihik First Nations, the White River First Nation, the Selkirk First Nation, and the Little Salmon/Carmacks First Nation.
