Cottage Country & Cameron Falls - Private DHC-2 Beaver Floatplane Tour

Cottage Country & Cameron Falls

Cabins, lakes and a thundering waterfall - all in one fabulous flight!

Ever wondered where Yellowknifers escape to on the weekend? Come see Yellowknife's cottage country the fun way - from the window of a Beaver! We follow the Ingraham Trail past the Aurora Village, Cassidy Point and the cabins and camps that dot Prosperous and Prelude Lakes.

Then comes the show-stopper: Cameron Falls, tumbling 17 metres (56 feet) through a granite gorge. It takes 45 minutes to drive there and a 40-minute hike to see it on foot - you will be overhead in minutes! We loop home over the back country to Dettah and glide down onto Back Bay.
