One of the first attractions of visiting Canada's North is the grandeur of the national parks. For this, the Yukon is a sight to behold. Nature reserves like Nahanni, a paradise on earth for mountaineers and outdoor enthusiasts, will leave them in awe with its grand canyons and giant waterfalls. Kluane Park, on the southwest side of the Yukon, is a must-visit for those who want to experience the great wilds through hiking or rafting along the glaciers. The reserve is also home to several animal species, including wolves, lynxes, mountain goats, and the majestic black bears.
Hiking on the Nanavut Bank ice in northern Canada is a great option. For those looking to immerse themselves in the magic of Northern nature, this is the perfect place to explore the ice banks on foot, by kayak or hiking. However, these activities can be challenging, and going with a guide or group is advisable. During this trip, seals, polar bears, walruses or narwhals can be admired with some luck. Indeed, observing wildlife is an essential activity. Birdwatchers can venture to Repulse Bay to observe gulls, peregrine falcons and snow geese.
There's nothing better than hunting for the Northern Lights to get into the wilds of North Canada. Again, the Yukon is in favor. Adventurers can go to Whitehorse, and if they want to move to the Northwest Territories, Yellowknife can also be found. These two spots are privileged to observe these wonders, and above all, they hide exceptional landscapes.
Moreover, both places offer snowmobile tours to take advantage of this rare phenomenon, adding more magic to the visit. Apart from that, other activities are very often highlighted, such as walking on trails of incredible beauty. Also, walking on trails is suitable for all fitness levels. ◄
