Join Canadian River Expeditions for 12 days of canoeing and rafting on the Thelon River in Canada’s NW Territories and wrap in a chance to view the northern lights and aurora borealis!
The region surrounding the Thelon River is a remote, beautiful and unique portion of the northern tundra. The Thelon River region is North America's largest tract of wilderness, with the closest settled communities in every direction being over 400 km away. The Dene who lived in the area of the Thelon were known as the Ethen-eldili-dene, or the "caribou-eating people"
Canadian River Expeditions has selected the best time of the year to adventure in this wilderness area. Bugs are few, colors are vibrant and the caribou have recently shed their antler velvet, revealing majestic antlers. Brilliant Northern lights may dance through the skies at night. Read on, these are but a few of the Thelon River trip’s attractions!
You have the option of rafts or raft/two-person canoe combinations on this Thelon River trip. Travel over ten river days from Double Barrel Lake to Eyeberry Lake through approximately 105km (65 miles) with an elevation drop of 68m (195 feet).
