Akluk Creek is a remote waterway located within the wilderness of the Northwest Territories, Canada, flowing as a tributary to the Hornaday River watershed and draining into Seven Island Lake. The creek sits within or adjacent to Tuktut Nogait National Park, one of Canada's most isolated protected areas, situated in the Arctic tundra north of the Arctic Circle. The surrounding landscape is characterized by vast, undisturbed boreal and tundra terrain, and the watershed — spanning approximately 14,670 km² — is home to populations of Arctic Char that exhibit both anadromous and resident life histories. Notably, landlocked or resident Arctic Char populations have been identified in Akluk Creek itself, as well as in Seven Island Lake and Rummy Lake, and genetic data suggest these populations may be distinct from the anadromous char found elsewhere in the Hornaday River system.
