Nahanni River Raft and Canoe Trips

A Canoe or Raft trip on the Nahanni River is truly the adventure of a lifetime

Nahanni National Park is one of the most spectacular Parks in the Canadian North West Territories , perhaps the world. The South Nahanni River is one of North America's finest wild rivers and rushes 322 kilometer through the park. At Virginia Falls, the river cascades down to form this continent's most spectacular undeveloped waterfall, twice the height of Niagara Falls.

Immediately down river from the falls are eight kilometer of nearly continuous rapids and standing waves created as the river flows through Fourth Canyon. There are strikingly different landscapes throughout the Park. Four great canyons, up to 1,200 metres deep, line the river. At Rabbitkettle hotsprings, warm (20°C) water radiates outward to form an intricately terraced mound of tufa rock, more than 27 metres high. A mountain landscape embraces the canyons.

Numerous rapids, several hot springs and unlimited hiking opportunities are among the other highlights of the river. The valley is dominated by geological features so unique that Nahanni National Park was declared the first World Heritage Site by the United Nations.
