Wahnapitae First Nation

About Us

Located on the north shores of Lake Wahnapitae, Wahnapitae First Nation is a signatory of the Robinson-Huron Treaty (1850) and an Ojibway community of the Anishinabek Nation. The community has a land base of 3.2 km X 3.2 km and is accessible by road all year. WFN is a developing community with a rich history and a strong cultural identity originating from its people and natural environment. The community offers a rich combination of assets that will appeal to many tourists and also speak to potential businesses or families looking to return to their First Nation community.
 
Wahnapitae First Nation’s strongest assets are people and the natural environment. Preservation of both is critical, both for economic development opportunities, but also the preservation of our Anishinaabe culture and traditions. The people who choose to live and work in the community are adventurous spirits with a strong sense of identity and community pride. Attracting more of our members to return to the community will only benefit the WFN. Marketing efforts to attract tourists can use the stunning nature surrounding the community to evoke excitement and adventure in potential visitors.
