Nenikëkh / Nanika-Kidprice Park contains a wilderness lake chain that is a popular multi-day canoeing destination. The lake chain consists of four lakes, starting from Lamprey Lake and continuing through Anzac, Stepp and Kidprice Lakes. Connected by three portage trails, the lakes make an enjoyable out and back trip.
The Nenikëkh / Nanika-Kidprice Park lake chain lies within a deep valley between the Sibola mountain range to the southeast and the Morice Range to the northwest. The western boundary of the protected area adjoins Morice Lake Park and includes Nanika Falls along the lower Nanika River. The basin area containing the lake chain is 920 meters above sea level and is surrounded by glaciated and snow-capped peaks that rise as high as 2400 meters.
The 30 kilometre return trip can be made in three days, but five to six days allows the opportunity to explore the lush alpine meadows of Tableland Mountain and the Sibola Range. Wildlife and waterfowl viewing opportunities abound and fantastic scenery awaits the photographer. Nanika Falls are a focal point of the trip, these falls drop 18 meters from Kidprice Lake into the Nanika River.
