Champagne LandingorChampagne Landing 10 is a First Nations settlement in Yukon, Canada. It is located on the Alaska Highway (historical mile 968, between Whitehorse and Haines Junction). Its residents are citizens of the Champagne and Aishihik First Nations.[2]

Many residents have moved to Haines Junction, where their nation has more services available.
