The Kluane National Park Guide

World Heritage mountains, ancient glaciers, and the wildest wilderness in Canada

Kluane National Park is one of Canada's great natural wonders — a UNESCO World Heritage Site protecting the largest non-polar icefields on Earth and the highest peaks in Canada. Most visitors experience only the highway-accessible edge of the park, which is spectacular in itself. This guide covers everything from roadside viewpoints to backcountry glacier travel, written for travellers at every level of ambition.
