There are no roads to Nunavut. The 25 separate communities of Nunavut are not connected to each other by highway or by railroad, nor are they connected by road or rail to any other Canadian cities further south.

Air travel is by far the most common means of transportation to Nunavut and between its distant communities. Visitors to Nunavut can reach the gateway communities of Iqaluit, Rankin Inlet and Cambridge Bay by air travel from any major centre in the world. Booking through a registered Travel Nunavut member will help to save on airfare.
