Plan a custom expedition with Nunavik Parks rather than arriving for a walk-in campground or a fixed daily tour.

A remote river expedition
Weather, cold, wildlife and delayed emergency response are part of northern travel planning. Carry suitable navigation and communication tools. Work through the Nunavik safety guidance with your organizer and agree on an emergency and overdue-return plan before entering the park.
Respect continuing cultural connections
Leave rocks, archaeological traces and vegetation undisturbed. Avoid feeding or approaching wildlife. Recreational drone flights are prohibited. The harvesting rights of James Bay and Northern Québec Agreement beneficiaries differ from the rules for ordinary tourists.
Contact the team for a custom visit
The park offers custom trip planning. Agree on the route, guide arrangements, landing permissions and camps before committing to travel. Under the visitor authorization rules, ordinary visitors register before an excursion and check out after returning to the host village. Obtain the current booking and cancellation terms directly from staff.
Plan from the Kangiqsualujjuaq contact
The park is in Québec's George River region. Its Kangiqsualujjuaq office contact is a planning point; the mailing PO box is not a river put-in. Start with the official Ulittaniujalik description and have staff confirm the specific transfer, landing and collection locations for your route.
River travel and landscape observation
The George River provides the focus for a possible river descent. Pic Pyramid's terraces reveal the changing water levels of a former glacial lake. Choose a route that fits your paddling and backcountry experience, with the permissions and support agreed in advance.
Settle camp logistics before traveling
Custom trip planning is handled through the park team. Agree on where you will sleep and which supplies the organizer provides. Include food, cooking equipment, communications and waste handling in that discussion. Settle the overnight logistics as part of the approved expedition.
About Ulittaniujalik
Inuit and Naskapi river routes
The park was created in 2016. The George and Ford river systems have long connected inland travel and harvesting areas. The Naskapi Nation also identifies this territory as culturally significant. Later outfitting operations added another layer to the river's history.
Northern river and valley habitats
Caribou and black bears occur in the park. The George River and regional lakes support fish including Atlantic salmon and Arctic char. Shrubs, mosses and lichens cover much of the landscape, with more wooded habitat in the valleys. Observe animals without following them or disturbing their habitat.
