Home > Faro, Yukon

Faro is a small town in central Yukon, Canada, formerly the home of the largest open pit lead-zinc mine in the world as well as a significant producer of silver and other natural resource ventures.

Though these industries have declined over the past decade, Faro is attempting to attract eco-tourists to the region to view such animals as Dall's Sheep . Several viewing platforms have been constructed in and around the town.

Lorne Greene, famous for his work in Bonanza, once narrated a film about Faro called A New World In the Yukon.
