Havikpak Creek flows into the Mackenzie River near the Delta. It is primarily covered with an open taiga woodland, open wetlands and upland shrub tundra. The basin is underlain by continuous permafrost and in some areas this is ice-rich. It has two meteorological stations and a streamflow gauging station and is near the Inuvik MSC weather station.
