Tourism is an important part of the Northwest Territories economy and the Department of Industry Tourism and Investment (ITI) works in partnership with Northwest Territories Tourism (NWTT) to promote the Northwest Territories as a “spectacular” world-class tourist destination.
Within the 1.17 million square kilometres of our Spectacular Northwest Territories are a multitude of beautiful parks and campgrounds.
The Department of Industry, Tourism and Investment (ITI) is responsible for developing, operating and maintaining facilities that include parks, visitor centres and interpretive displays.
Through this department, the Government of the Northwest Territories (GNWT) also provides resources and support to the NWT Tourism Industry for marketing, research, training and product development.
The GNWT’s investment and initiatives to develop and expand the tourism industry in the Northwest Territories are outlined in: Tourism 2015: New Directions for a Spectacular Future.
