| Nunavut Travel: Nunavut Travel Guide and Essential Information
Directly above Manitoba and west of Hudson’s Bay, Nunavut’s undiscovered and unspoiled lands sit quietly in Canada’s north. Meaning ‘our land’ in ‘Inuktitut’, the Inuit’s language, Nunavut is a perfect travel destination for the adventure-seeking enthusiast. Race through the winter’s thick arctic ice while being pulled by a team of huskies or stay up all night and read a book in summer’s 24-hour light. Year-round,
Nunavut travel won’t disappoint.
The term ‘light’ has many different connotations when it comes to travelling Canada’s North. By day, the sun glitters and dances off the ice-covered horizons and by night, the Northern Lights –or Aurora Borealis–
paint a picture in the sky with their coloured hues.
Nunavut is a place where all the entertainment needed is found in the nature’s splendour. Traverse high into the artic to explore Ellesmere Island’s unparalleled beauty or scale the treacherous heights of Mt. Thor. If scaling ice walls is not your style, paddle through the
Arctic's extensive river system and surround yourself with sights that are only seen to be believed.
Once your adventures are complete, sit back and relax over a hot drink in Iqualuit, the province’s capital. Marvel at the igloo-inspired St. Anglican Church or browse the stores for one-of-a-kind Inuit art.
Canada’s newest territory is eager to please and will not disappoint.
