Nahanni National Park is one of the most spectacular parks in the Northwest Territories. The South Nahanni River, one of North America's finest wild streams, rushes 322 kilometres through the park. At Virginia Falls, you will witness the continents most spectacular undeveloped waterfall, twice the height of Niagara Falls. There are strikingly different landscapes throughout the park, from canyons, to mountains to hotsprings. The area is considered so unique that it was declared the first World Heritage Site by the United Nations.
