What happens when one of Canada's most beautiful wildernesses is also home to one of its darkest mysteries? In this episode of World Heritage Rookies, we explore Nahanni National Park Reserve in the Northwest Territories. From its breathtaking 1,000-meter canyons and Virginia Falls—which drop nearly twice the height of Niagara Falls—to the chilling legends of the "Valley of Headless Men," Ralf uncovers a site where stunning geology meets wild folklore. Discover why this remote paradise earned its World Heritage status, how the indigenous Dene people navigated its treacherous waters, and why you definitely need a floatplane (and bear spray) to visit.
