Nahanni National Park, Canada

If there's such a obsession as a quintessential Canadian wilds experience, paddling down the Nahanni River may be it. While the remote Nahanni National Park in the Northwest Territories has always had a degree of recognition -- it was the world's first-ever UNESCO World Heritage Site -- its profile increased radically in 2009 when the park underwent a massive expansion to become more than 11,500 square miles of private land (nearly the size of Switzerland). While the park's remote nature means that this is not a budget trip, you also don't have to be a grizzled outdoorsman to enjoy it -- warming in the north means that the season gets a little bit longer every year, and a lot of people choose to float contentedly down the river in a whitewater raft, enjoy the abundant wildlife.
