Baffin Island Essentials

Baffin Island’s landscape is defined by the granite peaks of Auyuittuq National Park and the ancient Barnes Ice Cap, Canada’s oldest ice mass. This list includes Mount Thor, featuring the world’s steepest vertical drop at 1,250 meters, and the igloo-inspired architecture of St. Jude’s Cathedral in Iqaluit. From the narwhal-rich waters of Milne Inlet to the massive freshwater expanse of Nettilling Lake, these sites represent the extreme geography of the Canadian Arctic.
