WELCOME TO GINGOLX
Seafood Capital of the Nass
About Gingolx
Perched on the edge of the land where the Nass River empties into Portland Inlet lies the Nisga’a Village of Gingolx.
Gingolx (pop roughly 500) means “place of scalps,” a historic warning to would-be conquerors that the Gingolx people are determined to protect their land, resources, and way of life. Today, that fierce pride is expressed though self-government and the continuance of traditional culture and language, and through offering a warm welcome to visitors from around the world.
