Must-visit for your hikes in Unlimited Lakes & Parkland
North of the prairie, the boreal forest spreads in large stands of pine and spruce, broken up by lakes. The city of Prince Albert is the gateway to Prince Albert National Park, to the north.
Prince Albert National Park, home to the Waskesiu townsite, brings together boreal forest, aspen parkland and fescue grassland, with many lakes. In the city itself, Little Red River Park has trails beside the river. Anglin Lake, Ness Lakes and Delaronde Lake are lakes north and northwest of Prince Albert.
Narrow Hills Provincial Park, to the northeast, is a landscape of hills and small glacial lakes; the Gem Lakes are part of it. Greenwater Lake and Marean Lake lie farther southeast.
Makwa Lake and Brightsand Lake are in the west of the region.
Black bears live in the boreal forest: keep food out of reach and make noise as you walk. Mosquitoes are numerous in June and July. Entry to the national and provincial parks requires a fee.
