ABOUT THIS REGION  CANOEING - RIVER TRIPS

Canoeing trip on the Snake River

This challenging canoe trip on the Snake River is truly a wilderness expedition. On this canoeing trip, you will be dropped off by floatplane at Duo Lakes, and make your way through magnificent alpine valleys in the shadows of the Mackenzie Mountains. Your canoeing journey ends about 300 km downstream, where the Snake River joins the mighty Peel River. There is plenty of time along the way to trek into the mountains or do some fishing for arctic grayling and dolly varden char. Wildlife encounters with moose, dall sheep, caribou, grizzly bear or wolves are common.
