These Are The World's Last Untouched Places

Nunavut, Canada

While this ancient northern landscape has spanned millennia, it's only been a Canadian territory since 1999.

Seychelles

An archipelago of 115 islands, this country in the Indian Ocean is home to some of the most pristine natural wonders in the world.

Fiordland, New Zealand

Dominated by steep, snow-capped mountains, deep lakes and waterfalls, Fiordland has never had a significant permanent population, keeping it virtually untouched.

Bhutan

While many will recognize the famous Tiger's Nest monastery in Bhutan, most of the country has barely been affected by the trappings of modern life.

Ethiopia

Until recently Ethiopia’s well-documented struggles have dominated the limelight, which means its many treasures have remained little-known.

Rock Islands, Palau

Situated in Palau's southern lagoon, the Rock Islands are made up of approximately 300 individual islands, stretched over almost 20 miles (32km) of ocean.

The Antarctic Peninsula

The Antarctic Peninsula is an isolated, virtually uninhabited, frozen landmass. Wildlife in the Antarctic Peninsula is most active in the austral summer months, and penguins migrate here to breed and feed on Antarctic krill, fish and squid.

Papua New Guinea

Dubbed the soul of Papua New Guinea, the Sepik River snakes its way through the north of the country. The area surrounding the river is sparsely populated, with just a few small indigenous tribes living there.
