Drive the Mackenzie Hwy. Operators are licenced by the Canadian Parks Service. June through August are T-shirts and shorts weather. Take maximum-strength insect repellent. Weather can change dramatically and fast currents, whitewater and rapidly changing water levels can quickly turn class II and III rapids into class III and IV rapids.
Rivers become ice roads in winter.
No motorized traffic is allowed in Nahanni National Park other than licenced flight services which are restricted to landings at Virginia Falls or Rabbitkettle Lake. We welcome your feedback. All rights reserved.
