Northwest Territories


The Northwest Territories is home to landscapes that range from breathtaking rugged mountains and a vast swath of boreal forests to giant lakes and mighty rivers. The entire region has a population of a small provincial town. You’re more likely to spot a herd or bison or come across a grizzly bear than you are to encounter humans. Everything is extreme here, from the isolation to the daylight (or lack of it) to the size of the wildlife. Yellowknife is where most of the territories’ population and commercial activity is based and it’s the perfect launch pad for outdoor adventure of the Northwest Territories.
