Ulittaniujalik National Park (French:parc national Ulittaniujalik) is a 5,293.1 km2 (2,043.7 sq mi)national park, created on 10 March 2016 inNunavik,Quebec,Canada. It was created in partnership with theInuit communities ofKangiqsualujjuaq andKuujjuaq, in addition to theNaskapi community ofKawawachikamach. It contains thePic Pyramide (Pyramid Peak), which is at an altitude of 457 m (1,499 ft).[1][2]
