Remote Arctic wilderness in northern Yukon protecting Vuntut Gwitchin heritage

Vuntut National Park

Vuntut National Park is a vast protected wilderness area located in the northern Yukon region of Canada, established in 1995 as part of the Vuntut Gwitchin First Nation Final Agreement. The park spans approximately 4,345 square kilometers of pristine Arctic terrain and derives its name from the Gwich'in language, meaning "among the lakes," reflecting the region's characteristic glacial lake landscape. The park holds significant ecological value as part of the North Yukon Natural Region, preserving a remote and largely untouched arctic ecosystem that supports diverse wildlife populations. What distinguishes Vuntut is its exceptional remoteness and extremely low visitation, with fewer than 25 people visiting annually, making it one of Canada's least-visited national parks. The area holds profound cultural significance for the Vuntut Gwitchin people, whose traditional and current use of the land is protected under the park's management framework.
