The Serengeti of the North

In Northern British Columbia, the Muskwa-Kechika Management Area comprises some 6.4 million hectares (approximately 15 million acres) of wilderness. The region, north of Prince George, northwest of Fort St. John and extending to the Yukon Border, covers an area roughly the size of Ireland.

This spectacular landscape of glacier-draped peaks, alpine valleys and major wetlands, is so rich in wildlife it's been dubbed The Serengeti of the North. Home to Grizzly and black bear, lynx, Stone's sheep, bison, mountain goat, moose, elk, caribou, mule and white-tailed deer, it remains one of the best places on earth to see wildlife in its natural habitat.

Several companies offer guided excursions into the area.
