Nahanni Butte
Nahanni Butte (Tthenaago, "strong rock"), is a small Dene community with log houses just south of its namesake. Located at the confluence of the South Nahanni and Liard Rivers, Nahanni Butte is a welcome stop on the final leg of a canoeing or rafting trip in Nahanni National Park Reserve. Community tours can be arranged with advance notice. There are spectacular views of the Nahanni and Liard mountain ranges.
Fly in to this traditional Dene community (winter road access only) home to a stunning log church built by Bern Will Brown and a log school designed by one of the North's most renowned architects, Gino Pin.
Limited accommodations are available at the local inn.
