It is not a river for beginners. The country is hilly, rounded, rolling Canadian Shield. Eskers provide good hiking. You can paddle the Kazan's entire 540 mile length. And the fishing along the Kazan is hard to beat.
Shorter trips are available.
The open tundra of Nunavut provides the backdrop to the ultimate hiking experience. You can see across the land, to observe wildlife. Hikes are available in the High Arctic oasis on Ellesmere Island, and from most communities. A walk at North Ellesmere National Park Reserve brings walkers amidst the wildlife that inhabits the tundra. Auyuittuq National Park offers mountain trails, and hikers at Katannilik Park follow paths through willow forest.
