Nahanni Expeditions

The Nahɂą Dehé (South Nahanni River) is one of the world’s great canoe journeys. It winds through Nahanni National Park Reserve – one of the first UNESCO World Heritage Sites – past the thundering Náįlįcho (Virginia Falls), nearly twice the height of Niagara Falls, and on through towering canyons, hot springs and lively whitewater to Nahanni Butte.

Join our guides on the 14-day Grand Nahanni from Rabbitkettle Lake or the 10-day Nahanni Classic from Virginia Falls. Or paddle it your way, with our canoes, gear and shuttles. We’re proud to offer our Nahanni trips in partnership with Nahɂą Dehé Dene Band and Liidlii Kue First Nation.

Great Slave Lake

The fabled East Arm is perhaps the most grandiose region of Great Slake Lake, and for good reason. It features clear waters, deep bays with tall, stark red cliffs, and world-class fishing.

Western Arctic

69°51’N 126°56’W

The Arctic Circle is a line of lore and legend – and the Western Arctic is one of the few places in Canada where you can reach it by river. You can watch the sun spin itself dizzy in the sky, never falling below the horizon. You’ve now crossed into the true polar zone, a mythic region only a fraction of the travellers on Earth have ever entered.

Mackenzie Mountains

62°59’N  129°01’W

The Mackenzie Mountains may offer the greatest whitewater canoeing left on Earth – an endless oasis of remote, rugged uplands, cut through by glacial rivers and bustling with mountain sheep, caribou, moose and other creatures untouched by the modern age.
