When most people think of Canada, Vancouver, Montreal, Ottawa and others spring to mind. But, obviously there are far more than that. For example, Manitoba New Brunswick Newfoundland and Labrador, Prince Edward Island, Quebec, Saskatchewan, and Yukon are all there, and they’re waiting for you to stop by. If you haven’t made these destinations a destination, then wait until you stop and see what it’s all about. But here we’re discussing Haida Gwaii. It’s a whole other world.
Haida Gwaii, also known as the Queen Charlotte Islands, is an archipelago off British Columbia’s west coast, in Canada. Wildlife-rich Gwaii Haanas National Park Reserve and Haida Heritage Site includes remote islands and temperate rainforest. Centuries-old totem poles stand in the remains of the Haida Nation village known as SGang Gwaay Llnagaay. Naikoon Provincial Park, on Graham Island, has trails and beaches.
Haida Gwaii is unique because it combines isolated “Galápagos of the North” ecosystems that escaped the last Ice Age with a vibrant, ancient Indigenous culture that has flourished there for over 10,000 years.
