Book - Unforgettable Canada: 100 Destinations

There is much to see traveling within our Canadian borders from coast to coast. But how do you decide where to go? Books are a wonderful way to get trip ideas, and this latest book entitled 'Unforgettable Canada: 100 Destinations' is a great way to get the imagination going.

This beautifully photographed and engagingly written guide offers 100 of Canada's most remarkable destinations, spread across every province and territory. Some represent dream excursions to the far reaches of the land, while others are easily accessible from major centers. Each destination offers unforgettable scenic vistas, exotic land formations or unique glimpses into Canada's history and spirit.

This book touches on many of Canada's most popular destinations as well as some hidden gems. For example, one of the book's featured destinations is going to Tuktoyaktuk, Northwest Territories for an 'Arctic Toe Dip'. An 'arctic toe dip' is an ancient polar pagan ritual and is a great trip idea for those looking for something different, a little adventurous and with a spiritual component as well. Tuktoyaktuk is a coastal community in the arctic circle and it is being threatened by climate change in a big way to the point where the entire community may have to be moved. Visiting Tuktoyaktuk and performing an 'arctic toe dip' is a great way to re-connect with our Canadian heritage, re-connect with our planet, and also bare witness to the direct effects that climate change is having on Canada.

If you're searching for potential vacations, buy a book. You never know where it will take you. Perhaps your next great travel escape is right here in Canada.
