Kluane / Wrangell–St. Elias / Glacier Bay / Tatshenshini-Alsek

This vast protected region spans the borderlands of Yukon, Alaska, and British Columbia, linking four parks into the world’s largest transboundary protected area. Recognized as a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1994, it is renowned for exceptional glaciers, icefields, and mountain landscapes, including Mount Logan, Canada’s highest peak. Its immense scale shelters rich biodiversity, with important habitat for grizzly bears, caribou, Dall sheep, wolverines, murrelets, and distinctive plant life. Human use has also shaped the area, including former commercial fishing. In Tatshenshini-Alsek Provincial Park, stewardship is shared with the Champagne and Aishihik First Nations, reflecting the region’s cross-border character.
