Nahanni Butte (/nəˈhæni/ nə-HAN-ee; Slavey language: Tthenáágó[pronunciation?] "strong rock") is a "Designated Authority"[6] in the Dehcho Region of the Northwest Territories, Canada. The community is located at the confluence of the Liard and South Nahanni Rivers in the southwestern part of the NWT.
Although it was not normally accessible by road, a winter road was constructed yearly until an all-season road was completed in October 2010 as far as the Liard River. Access from there is by river taxi in summer and ice road in winter; there are no plans for a vehicle ferry.
