Our Territory
Our area is located in the northern barren-lands region of the Northwest Territories, Canada. We are located past the boreal forest into the barren-lands, that are renown for their giant lakes and river drainage that makes for a game rich environment. The animal population on the barren-lands is high with Muskox, Grizzly Bear, Arctic Wolves, Wolverines, Arctic Hares and the populations are estimated to be in the thousands for Caribou. You will be remote, which puts you in the heart of where these majestic animals live.
All of our Canadian Safari Adventure trips are located within the Northwest Territory closed caribou zone. The winter Mobile Bathurst Caribou closed zone (the closed mobile zone moves with the caribou migration). Caribou are a main food source and the wolves follow the caribou herds. This is a prime area for arctic wolves, grizzly bears, muskox and wolverines.
The Canadian Arctic caribou migration is one of the greatest wildlife spectacles on Earth. Each year, barren-ground caribou travel up to 4,800 kilometres (3,000 miles) across the Arctic tundra—the longest land migration of any terrestrial animal on the planet.
Every summer and fall, hundreds of thousands of caribou move across the vast landscapes of Canada’s Northwest Territories, creating an unforgettable experience for the fortunate few who witness it. This remarkable natural event draws wildlife photographers, filmmakers, and nature enthusiasts from around the world.
Why the Arctic Caribou Migration Is So Extraordinary
The World’s Longest Land Migration
Canadian barren-ground caribou travel farther than the famous wildebeest of Africa’s Serengeti, making this one of nature’s greatest endurance journeys.
Safety in Numbers
During migration, herds can number in the hundreds of thousands. Moving together helps protect them from predators such as Arctic wolves and grizzly bears.
A True Wilderness Experience
There are no roads leading to the migration routes. Reaching this untouched wilderness requires a floatplane flight into remote locations like Aylmer Lake Lodge, where guests can experience the migration in its natural setting.
A Once-in-a-Lifetime Adventure
Because of the remoteness of the Canadian Arctic, these expeditions require careful planning and experienced guides. The reward is an authentic Arctic safari in one of the last great wilderness regions on Earth.
At Canadian Wildlife Adventures, we offer guests the opportunity to witness this incredible migration while experiencing the pristine beauty of the Northwest Territories. It’s more than a tour—it’s an unforgettable journey into one of the world’s last truly wild places.
The World’s Greatest Arctic Safari begins at Aylmer Lake.
