Aulavik National Park of Canada
Over 12,000 km2 of arctic wilderness on Banks Island
Aulavik, meaning “ place where people travel ” in Inuvialuktun, protects more than 12,000 square kilometres of arctic lowlands on the north end of Banks Island. The park encompasses a variety of landscapes from fertile river valleys to polar deserts, buttes and badlands, rolling hills, and bold seacoasts.
Aulavik National Park is one of the most isolated parks in North America, and rescue services and facilities are limited.
