Explore ancient rainforests and First Nations culture at Haida Gwaii
CANADA // To walk among the totem poles of Haida Gwaii is to enter a lost world. It's a place where bears roam and bald eagles soar, where sea lions, whales and orcas frolic offshore, and old-growth rainforests feed some of the world's largest spruce and cedars. The ancient Haida culture resonates powerfully across this sparsely populated archipelago off British Columbia's northern coast. It's on particular display in Gwail Haanas National Park, the islands' number-one attraction, where local guides will take you by kayak or inflatable boat to age-old villages.
