national parks
In the NWT’s national parks, the world remains brand new. Here, rivers run glassy-clear, peaks leap to the heavens, waterfalls plummet, and wild beasts abound – muskoxen, caribou, grizzlies, bison, you name it. Some of our parks, like Nahanni, are legends, on the bucket-list of every adventurer. Others are unsung gems – the most untrammeled places on the planet. But whether you’re waiting for bison to make way for your car in Wood Buffalo National Park, or ascending an unnamed, unclimbed peak in Nááts’ihch’oh, you’ll be experiencing Earth in its perfect form: glorious, wild and free.
