Chan Lake Territorial Park

The park is positioned between the road and the lake, 123 km north of the intersection between the Yellowknife Highway and the Waterfall Highway (Hwy #1),[2] and is located at the north end of the Mackenzie Bison Sanctuary.

[2] The community nearest to the park is Behchoko (Rae-Edzo).

[3] The park is for day-use only, and has picnic tables, pit toilets[2] and a kitchen shelter,[1] designed to afford a sheltered place to light a small cooking fire.

[3] Mackenzie Bison Sanctuary is under twenty minutes from the park[3] and bison can be encountered both on the highway[5] and in the park itself.

[6] The lake is on the migration path of several birds: ducks, geese, loons, swans,[2] and sandhill cranes[3] may be seen.
