The Little Buffalo River flows through the southern Northwest Territories, situated at approximately 61°00'N, 113°46'W, placing it within the broader Great Slave Lake watershed. Located just 20 kilometres south of Fort Resolution and minutes from the shores of Great Slave Lake, this river offers a genuine subarctic fishing experience in a remote and largely unspoiled landscape. The river is accessible via NWT Highway 6, approximately 67 kilometres from the junction of NWT Highways 5 and 6, making it one of the more reachable wilderness fishing destinations in the region. Little Buffalo Crossing Territorial Park sits on the river's shore and serves as a natural hub for anglers exploring this water, providing a comfortable base from which to fish the river and nearby Great Slave Lake.
