Wilderness
backpacking
If you long for the great unspoiled outdoors, we guarantee you'll find it if you go backpacking in the Northwest Territories. Plan a wilderness backpacking trip in the Mackenzie Mountains, or in one of our National Parks. These vacations are for experienced, well prepared trekkers. These are trails far from any services - you'll be dropped off by aircraft at the start of your trek and picked up at your destination. The wildlife and scenery is legendary. Our outfitters can help you plan a wilderness backpacking vacation in the Canadian north. They provide logistical support, including transportation, gear rentals and food caching. For a sampling of our better known trails, check out the listings here.
