Trout Point Lodge, Nova Scotia

This is relaxation in the heart of wilderness! Trout Point Lodge, in the far-flung east of Nova Scotia, is a civilised outpost amidst Atlantic Canada's largest wilderness, surrounded by pristine Arcadian forest. We're talking kayaking, hiking, wilderness safaris, river swimming, star gazing and mountain biking. Want more? Try the sauna, hot tub and in-room massage.

Knight Inlet, British Columbia

Join a Knight Inlet Grizzly Bear Adventure Tour in beautiful British Columbia. Located north of the Campbell River, the remote area known as Knight Inlet is one of the premier grizzly bear viewing spots in the world, set among the dramatic snow-capped peaks of Canada's rugged coastline. Tucked into Glendale Cove, 60 kilometres from the mouth of the inlet is the beautiful, floating Knight Inlet Lodge. When the salmon return to the river during autumn, more than 50 bears inhabit the area around the lodge. As far as grizzly-gazing goes, it doesn't get better than this!

Escape to the Laurentians, Quebec

The Laurentians, north of Montréal, spans 22,000 square kilometers from the Rivere des Mille-Iles in the south, to Mont-Laurier in the north.

The Yukon

The Yukon offers the ultimate in wilderness adventure. Send your clients to this incredible, remote territory with a 'must do' checklist:

  • Go canoeing in moose country
  • Enjoy a stroll with a Parks Canada naturalist in Kluane National Park, spotting thrushes, yellow-rumped warblers and, if you're lucky, perhaps even a mink or a wolf.
  • For some heart-pumping action, go rafting on the Tatshenshini through 150-m-high canyon walls and rapids.
  • Sink into a wilderness hot spring.

Drive across the Arctic Circle beneath the midnight sun.
