King's Throne Trail is an out-and-back trail, 2.4 miles each way (4.8 miles round trip) in Yukon, Canada, inside Kluane National Park and Reserve. It runs between about 2,400 ft and 4,300 ft above sea level, with roughly 2,300 ft of climbing one way. It is a mountain path with steeper and uneven sections, so wear proper hiking shoes. The nearest town is Haines Junction, about 16 miles southeast of the trailhead. Peaks within about 3 miles include King's Throne Peak. For camping, Kathleen Lake Campground is within about 6 miles. Distances, elevations and the route shape here come from OpenStreetMap and the Copernicus 90 m elevation model. Trails, access rules and conditions change, so check locally before you go.
