Eagle Plains is a rural locality in northern Yukon, Canada about 20 km (12 mi) south of the Arctic Circle.
The region is generally high in elevation and sits on top of permafrost, so the only plant life found in the plains are mosses, lichens, and small shrubs due to the tree line.
Being only 20 km (12 mi) south of the Arctic Circle, the locality experiences approximately 10 minutes of civil twilight during the summer solstice.
[1] Eagle Plains has a hotel and is the only place in between Tombstone Territorial Park and Fort McPherson that offers services like hospitality and gas.
Eagle Plains serves as the terminus of a temporary winter road which is sometimes built to transport freight into the community of Old Crow, which is normally only accessible by air.
