Overview

Named by UNESCO the very first World Heritage Site, the Nahanni is definitely one of the world’s best canoeing rivers. It is the experience of a lifetime to explore the remote, pristine, alpine river valley of Nahʔą Dehé (the South Nahanni River). You will discover a mountainous wonderland with breathtaking canyons, a magnificent waterfall, diverse wildlife, and exciting paddling on the fast-flowing river.
The two week Nahanni Classic trip is the most popular canoe expedition on the Nahanni River (Nahʔą Dehé). The route follows the river from the old park boundary at Rabbitkettle Lake (Gahnîhthah Mįe) to Virginia Falls(Náįlįcho), through the spectacular canyons section to the Mackenzie Lowlands and the confluence of the Liard River at Nahanni Butte (Ttenáágó). The trip is highlighted by fun class I and II whitewater, interesting day hikes up tributary canyons, wildlife viewing and exploring Virginia Falls (Náįlįcho).
