'Off the beaten path' in Baffin Island could describe everything.
The walk in the Auyuittuq National Park is fairly unknown, or at least the Northern section was - most trekkers start from Pangnirtung, trek up to Summit Lake (roughly half way) and go back the same route. The northern section isn't as beautiful, but is much more remote - we saw no-one at all until we arrived at the southern point of Summit Lake (and even then we only saw less than 15).
