Nahanni National Park Reserve

Nahanni National Park Reserve is a vast wilderness protected area in the Dehcho Region of the Northwest Territories, Canada, situated approximately 500 kilometres west of Yellowknife. The park safeguards a spectacular portion of the Mackenzie Mountains Natural Region, centred on the South Nahanni River, known in the local Dene language as Naha Dehé. This remote landscape features four dramatic canyons with walls reaching up to 1,000 metres in height, Virginia Falls plunging 90 metres in a thunderous plume, and the Rabbitkettle hotsprings with Canada's largest tufa mound formations. Inscribed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1978, Nahanni was the first natural site in the world to receive this recognition, honoured for its outstanding universal value including wilderness character, extensive river systems, and geological significance. The park spans over 30,000 square kilometres and remains in reserve status pending resolution of outstanding Aboriginal land claims in the region.
