Reviews of Prince Albert National Park (Park)

Aparna Rajeshwari

I loved this place so because of its beauty and cleanliness. I can prefer to hang out with family and friends on weekends.

Russell Schick

Beautiful National Park. We saw black bears, foxes, elk, and beaver there in May. Narrows campgrounds is by far the best.

Brittney Witte

Gorgeous park, expensive with the entry fee. That's what you get for national parks though!

Dale Bruce Hopkins

Quiet spot in the winter. Cross country skiing is incredible, snow shopping is great, and the "chop your own Christmas tree" program is a great compliment to the season.

James Olfert

Perfect place for a weekend getaway or a week camping. You can camp in town and have all the crowds and amenities, backcountry camp to get away from it all, or anything in between. Great park run programs for kids.

Anthony Hadlen Hanson

Always love this place. The disc golf is perfect too!

Domenic Scuglia

A gem in the heart of Saskatchewan where you can appreciate all of God's splendor.

Martin Gottselig

You want relaxation 1 day and hiking and biking the next? This is the place

Russ Phillips

Great way to hang out in nature and then retire to the comforts of a cabin each night.

Christian Alexander

Love this place. The hiking is great and the lake is amazing

Derek Bedard

Prince Albert Narional Park is a wonder to behold with all its natural beauty and sights to see. Me and my buddies go up to waskeisu anytime we can and anywhere else in the park also and it always provides a good time.

Kristy McCall Matheson

We love coming to PANP! The scenery for one is amazing! There is lots to see and do, from hikes, to wildlife, to water sports, to beaches, and on and on. Our favorite summer holiday.

Sanket Patel

Mesmerizing experience.

Yingzi Luan

beautiful beach and lakes, good for swimming, kayaking, nice camping sites with shower and covered cooking sites. but too many mosquitoes!

jason

Gorgeous scenery...plenty to do. What's not to love? We always enjoy our time at Waskesui and even managed to see a bear and several elk!!!

Dennis Regan

Scenic park with lots of wildlife. Free hot showers and flush toilets. Large RV sites with water and electric hookups.

Claudio Della Valle

Beautiful and serene. Surrounded by forests and pristine lakes. Campsites are well maintained and you can really get away from it all if you hire a canoe too. 5 stars!!

Amy Danczak

We visited just prior to the camping season. It felt like we had the whole park to ourselves. We back country camped. The wildlife was the best I've ever seen. Fox, Elk, loons, deer, ducks, black bears with cubs and a brown bear.

Steven Loewen

Massive area of unspoiled wilderness with numerous hiking trails and beaches. All the activities you could want to take advantage of the area, suitable lodging for everyone, and a vibrant resort town.

Amanda “Saskatoon Photographer” Renditure Photogra

Been going here since I was a child. Theres something for everyone. Lots of opportunity for great photos and picturesque landscapes.

Your Dream Mango

Absolutely amazing place to go in the summer. We don’t live in the area but we live just near it, but we go there every summer and love it. There is lots to do and you can never get bored. All of the workers are very nice there and I guarantee a great loveable stay if you go here for the summer. It will be all worth it. ❤️

Azeem Qureshi

Fantastic experience. Main beach area is good to stay with family. Overnight stay is fun. Well organized national park.

Nathan Galan

Such a great place to go camping and enjoy the beautiful Saskatchewan landscape. The park is always kept very clean and the park staff are always pleasant. My boyfriend and I enjoyed a stay at the Beaver Glen campsite. Would recommend to anyone looking to get out of the city for the weekend to get some fresh air!

KEVIN SMITH

Nice place. Watching the stars at night was awesome.

Brad Wall

One of my favorite places.

DR. Murtaza

Excellent place to visit with family and kids

Dylan Bellegarde

It is not a park at all there is no nature anywhere and houses are not parks so I give it 100 ???????? Down

Dustin Hubick

Great park with plenty to do.

F Lang

Love this park. Has many lakes, rivers, streams, trails. Great campgrounds. Much to see and do

birdhunter9999

Interesting and beautiful spot to visit. Did a trail ride with my kids. There is a herd of free ranging bison in the park. We were lucky enough to get close to some of them. We got a good look at the bison and some impressive country. Overall a pleasant place to visit.

Tracy Horse

One of the best places in Saskatchewan to bring your family.

Dwayne Harris

One of my favorite places on earth. If you like the lake life the is a great bang for your buck! Cabins, hotels, swimming, boating, fishing AND a nice little townsite for some shopping and a movie theatre.

abdur khan

Amazing view

SīLlent ßoy NāSir

This so Nice place I hope to come Canada please help me ????

Jerry Sullivan

Somewhere near here was a sign that read "Prairie to Pine" and it was like God turned on a switch ...Lodgepole Pine for a thousand miles .. truly an amazing phenomenon.. never saw anything quite like that before or since.

Milton Davies

Beautiful spot. Town site too focused on businesses.

Antonia McKinnon

We camped in K in Beaver Glen. The site was nice but the toilets were located in L and the only way to then without going through occupied sites was going around on the road. It is a lovely camp grid and a great National park. Even the Bears love it.

Brian Miller

Stopped to camp overnight near Wascana on my way to Missinippie. Great experience, nice campsites convince store nearby and great shower facilities.

Miranda Hughes-McKnight

Beautiful park! Lots of great trails and activities.

Jason Faber

Beautiful park with so much to see and do. We drive 10 hours out of our way just to come to Waskaseiu each year. Definitely worth the trip

Michela carriere

Amazing fishing

Tom Wolf

Beautiful park in the boreal plains, 2.5 h north of Saskatoon. Our favourite entry is the south gate via Hwy 263, called the scenic drive. Usually not busy there. Park is popular with road cyclists, MTB is allowed on many trails but not that common. Layout of town to Waskesiu Lake is very similar to Wasagaming and Clear Lake in Riding Mountain NP.

John Coburn

Beautiful and wild: PANP demonstrates what Canada is all about. You have to experience it first hand to fully appreciate it's place.

Randy Robert

It is the perfect Park where there are plenty of places for people can swim, boat, hike and otherwise enjoy nature. The best thing is that the Park has preserved most of the nature offerings of the area, while keeping the human footprint small.

Amyn Budhwani

Beautiful place to be in summmer time alwayse busy place but got lots to do here and a place to go with huge family and friends.

Panzerkampfwagen VI

Park? What park? This just some poser building

Riayad Hossian

Been there couple of times. Its the best SK has to offer. There is a marina if you like to rent a boat, you can go zip lining, tubing, disk golfing and hiking. There is a decent size beach there. Always a good time there with the friends and family.

Rod A. Young

A pristine wilderness adventure for the seasonal trekker. Many photo opportunities present.

Queen M.

If you are in Saskatchewan and you haven't seen this place yet. Go see it now. Awesome place with adventurous activities. Camping, Hikes, Boating, Swimming, Wild life and even more. Try spending a day or two and experience a super cool vacation.

Cricket Reynoldson

Very scenic

Leanne Prins Duiker

Why have I not been here before? This place is a Canadian gem! Will definitely be back, and longer next time!

Collyn Who

Always beautiful doesn't matter what time of year it is. Those who say Saskatchewan has nothing to do just hasn't looked for something to do

Rnold Smith

Waskesiu is a wonderful place for families to spend time. So many great activities and such a beautiful lake for swimming with nice Sandy beaches.

Mikaela Kraft

Perfect place to camping, landscapes are so beautiful! The lake was pretty, and I had a pleasant experience here..

Calvin Kawa

We were just there and there's so many insects especially mosquitoes. The beaches were nice. Don't know if we'd go back. Didn't live up to the hype.

Greg Adams

Great hiking-trail system in the park

JonoYQR

Oh man this was the best trio ever. The park was quiet when I went after the Sept long weekend. Some of the shops were closed, but otherwise we really enjoyed the townsite and the cabins we stayed at. The fall colours were just starting to change and it was just beautiful! My favourite hike was the Treebeard Trail, what a peaceful forest. We saw elk and deer, a very friendly fox, a black bear and a bunch of beautiful caterpillars! What a beautiful gem in Saskatchewan!

Bernie Van Tighem

Awesome hike to Grey Owls Cabin

Jon Poulin

Beautiful park with lots to see and do. Waskesiu is a great place to check out in summer though it does get busy on the weekends.

Mike Taylor

Great park lots to do, nice beaches. Town is torn between being small lake or resort town like. The town stuff itself is missing some necessities like a little pub and resorty things that would make it even more comfortable.

David Fletcher

Great facilities with access to nature at reasonable costs. We camped at the Beaver Glen Campground at Waskesiu Lake for 4 nights in their oTentiks. ???? We visited the narrows Campground and Paignton Beach. We hiked the Boundary Bog trail. So many great things to see and do, we couldn't do then all in our short stay!

Marius Ch

Beautiful weather. Awesome place. Time well spent

Reylin Cassandra

Waskesiu townsite is not very covid-19 safe due to overcrowding. Needs to have more social distancing measures and access to hand sanitizer. Having masks mandatory in town would be great. 5 stars for the campgrounds and the rest of the national park. ❤️

Todd Studer

Prince Albert National park is a gem of a getaway in Saskatchewan. Recommended for locals and tourists from anywhere. Book early as it is extremely busy in the summer and accomodations and camp sites fill up quickly.

Joanna McKay

Always 5 stars. One of Canada's eldest National Parks ... when wildlife saunters down the main drive while you are having an amazing lunch, breathing in crispy clean refreshing air...well the tension just rolls off and relaxation tip toes in :) If you've never been, go on a quieter weekday and take your time.

Charles Yeo

Great nature place with lots of conveniences, trails and talks. It is very difficult to get camping sites due to demand, especially weekends. Book ahead online. Reservations only; no sites are kept for show-ups. However, there is overflow that is a considerable distance from the main area.

Sravya Sitamraju

Great place for a family's day out! Kids will definitely enjoy

Matt Corbett

Gorgeous park teaming with wildlife spectacular lakes

Mike Whitehead

The park as always is well maintained. Several stores to shop in. Long hiking trails and plenty of wildlife. The staff were helpful and courteous. The only lacking is the bathrooms by the main beach in Waskesui are still under construction. But I anticipate they will be finished for the summer season 2021.

Blaire Fowler

The park is clean. Lots of people so it's a busy place. The small shops are neat. We loved going down to Evrgreen for a coffee then taking the kids to the beach. Black flies were a little annoying but not as bad as some years.

Matt Wolsfeld

Beautiful National park deep in the Saskatchewan shield forest. Crystal clear Lake with great, popular beaches, plenty of accommodations and campgrounds, and restaurants and shops in town. Great trails for hiking or biking and ample opportunity for water sports. Downside is that it gets very popular and busy in the summer, but you can always find quiet spots.

Elisha Ann

Beautiful. Most peaceful place

Levi Thompson

Awesome hiking trails, great camping (lots of overflow, too) just make sure you bring enough bug spray!

Low Budget Hunter

If you have never been here, go! It will be one of the best times you have had in a long while. Make sure you have a week. If not, hit the bakery on the main drag at 6am for the cinnamon buns! 5 stars.

Gerard McCall

No other place like it - in Saskatchewan. Lots of animals here depending on the time of year you visit. Small in terms of a National Parks however. In light of all the land in Saskatchewan they could have made the park 3 - 4 times the size me thinks.

Intuitive Path Consulting

Prince Albert National Park is fantastic it has so many different campsites you can camp close by waskasoo or you can camp out in the outer line regions or if you're adventurous you can hike anywheres from 2 to 25 K Into the Wilderness and camp at remote destinations. My wife and myself just did a 13 km hike in to fish Lake. It was a pretty tough hike we carried all our gear and all our food for two nights and three days anytime you go 13 km with 30 to 40 lb pack it's going to be challenging but it's the right type of Challenge and it's definitely a good time it's peaceful quiet there's very few people that come up that far and it's a beautiful Lake tons of animals deer and porcupine and I think that there are definitely some foxes there's definitely signs of bear but we didn't see any and an unbelievable level of birds in the lake loons and Canadian geese woodpeckers sparrows Ravens I strongly suggest getting into the backcountry doesn't matter how old you are.

amandeep singh

A must visit place for everyone who loves natural beauty of Canada....

Jeff Lukan

Wildlife everywhere, well maintained, awesome campground. Spent most of the time in Waskesiu and would definitely return.

A great place to see nature and relaxing peace of mind .

Sarah Weimer

Amazing beauty!! Love this park!! Definitely go back!!

robert eaton

Very good park to go for a walk and hang out, take my doggie and have a great time! The park was very clean and there were quite a few people!

Jon Sund

We are camped in an area that reminds me of a parking lot, yet it has been quiet so we do not have any complaints. There are major road and facility improvements in process that should make the park a better place to visit. The trails in the park are good for hiking though some are still suffering from the winter.

F Rawlyk

It's a beautiful park, that is easy to get to. Waskesiu has lots of amenities, but there are several other great camping spots too (car camping and backcountry camping). Lakes, forest, hiking, canoeing, cross country skiing, snowshoeing.. it's an outdoor playground.

Mike Dupuis

Did Grey Owl trail, awesome views, saw bears, moose, elk, deer, foxes. Very senic

Randy French

Fantastic national park. Wonderful access to nature with many remote trails but also has all amenities of civilization.

Russell B

Beautifully kept park with full amenities or no amenities depending on where you decide to stay. I stayed the first night with full service and the washrooms and camp sites were extremely well kept. The second night at a group site, not only was the site well kept but it had a beautiful view of the lake. I did the trail system to the fire tower and it was well groomed and maintained. Highly recommend people go on a weekend and check it out!

Audra Butt

Wonderful park!! Great camping

Megan Cook

Beautiful area so many hiking trails. Park staff are very friendly.

Deb Kelts

Beautiful area! Nice Summer Village

Pat 897

Excellent place to visit. Whether its for water activities or not it should be on everyones bucket list to visit atleast once

Dylan White

Hamptons of Saskatchewan, very nice but busy place. Nice shopping and restaurants.

Dustin Ratzlaff

A little slice of heaven in Northern SK. Definitely worth a weekend trip. Canada Day long weekend is a great time to see the National Park.

O M

This is a place to be if you like nature, fishing, boating , Beach, best lakeside places to picnic with ready fire pit and Wood,

Md Rezaul Karim Robin

Great scenic drive! Sky and cloud plays an important role to make this destination magnificent! Loved every bit of it!

Alina Kanazirska

Wonderful place ????????????

Aaron Heinrich

Would give it 5 stars if I felt I got a little more for my dollar. Pretty much the same price as a place like Jasper but less value for the money it seemed.

Jenn TAFFERS & Co.

We love going there in all seasons. Always lots of wildlife to see and things to do. Many smaller lakes perfect for kayaking or canoeing. A great way to spend the day.

Roberto's YouTube videos

Beautiful place to visit for the whole family. Just 3 hours from Saskatoon and one from Prince Albert.

Dee Staxx

Got my ticket ???? but missed my furry friend back home. Views were amazing and loved the community I travelled to. Will return again when I can!

Craig Fisher

Excellent outdoor experience with some nice shipping services. Swimming, boating, hiking, camping, cabins, wildlife, wilderness.

Trevor HEIDE

I love the lakes, campgrounds, and little townsite. It’s a gem that most non-Sask residents need to visit!

Eduard Bunito

I've been coming to this park almost every year for about 25 years. I still find new things to see and do. This is my happy place. Numerous excellent trails, great fishing, lots of wildlife to see, great for birding, and fantastic for photography. It's nice having the town there for added options for accommodations (hotels and cabins), restaurants, groceries, liquor store, shopping, and loads of activities (mini golf, tennis, ball diamond, bike rentals, kayaking, etc.) You can swim in the lake, although it is ice cold, even on a hot day. It's has just about everything you could need for a great holiday.

boomer271

I have been going to PA National Park for most of my life, every chance I get. So many places to camp or stay and so many things to do, I used to spend almost every weekend there when I lived in Prince Albert. I still get there several times a year from Saskatoon. Camping at Namekus Lake, or Beaver Glen, or staying at one of the hotels, always a wonderful experience.

Edel Lopez

Beautiful and amazing! Lot pf things to do and one of the wonders of Saskatchewan! Can’t wait to return!

Jaime Lilley

Beautiful place to stay. Wonderful setting clean park lots of wildlife to see.

Mark Watier

Great experience as usual! Seen our first black fox.

Soheil Ibrahim

A perfect entertainment that combines with adventure and fun!

Kaleb Dell

adel panahi

Great place to be to enjoy outdoor activities.

Hollow Lamarche

Really beautiful extremely clean only down side is that it tends over crowded

Valentina Klymiuk

Awesome place to visit! Lots of activities for everyone. Lovely nature. Check all possibilities and choose what fits you the best. It includes but not limited to hiking, camping, walking, bicycling, bbq, swimming, sunbathing, meeting wildlife etc. Highly recommended!

Preyas Patel

Great place to visit Has many things to do in summer as well as winter Both seasons have their own beauty Must visit place.

James Hudyma

One of the most beautiful places in Saskatchewan. There's a lot to do, rain or shine. Good for kids and adults of all ages. Great for water sports and fishing. Nice beaches. Clean lakes.

Tamica Georget

This is my home away from home even if it's Just for the day!

Jim Adrian

Such a pretty place hidden in northern Saskatchewan.

Nafis Azad

One of the best spots in Saskatchewan to check out if you have not already. With a beautiful view of the lake, amongst the various accommodations the town has to offer, it’s a spot you don’t want to miss! I come here usually during the summers but many of my friends come here during the cold times in winter and still admit to having a wonderful time! The prices are very reasonable and the sights are endless! If you have the chance, stick around for sundown to view the beautiful view of the sunset glistening over the waters. Never had an issue with this place and the park staff are always available when you need them!

Fergus English

The weather was nice, but the clouds reminded me of my dead dog Toby. If you have a dead dog this park is not for you. R.I.P. Toby

Joel Thon

Great lakes, great hiking, lots of things to do.

Keenan Gullickson

A beautiful and well preserved and maintained series of lakes, trails and forests await visitors in this gem of a national park, with a well defined and outfitted townsite and plenty of accommodations for those ranging from renters to luxury seekers prince Albert's national park is a must visit location if you are anywhere near the area.

Abdul S

Its Nice place to have a family picnic. There's Camp Ground. Beach...Boating. You must visit if you are living in Sasketchewan.

Arlene Adam

So many things to do! An outdoors-person's dream location.

JR LaPlante

If you love wildlife you have to visit Waskesiu area. The golf at Stanley Thompson designed Waskesiu is better than Banff or Jasper's Stanley Thompson designed courses. The wildlife that crosses the fairway as you play is a real treat.

Brenda Doyle

Loved camping here. We had a lovely private site with regular elk visits. We also enjoyed the lake town by the campground.

Hat andboots

Great camping and fishing, no better place if you love nature.

Tim Munro

Great outdoors for relaxation and enjoying friends, family and nature.

Kurtis Thick

Love visiting the park. Nice beach, and trails all around the area. Get out and enjoy them. Recommend the River and the Bog trails.

Laurie Sheepskin

The swimming is great and afterwards the picnic was amazing

Tony Billett

My absolute favourite place to be with my family.

stefaniesalminen2011

This place is stunning it’s a amazing place to take the family!!!

Miguel Velasco

Beautiful weekend scape place

Leland Knutson

Beautiful place. Coming back for four nights starting on Canada Day. Amazing place that you should definitely come check out. Lost of stores here

Connie Roy

September is a nice time to enjoy the park. It isn't busy and we love the fall colours.

Csaba K

The most beautiful place I've been in Saskatchewan! I highly recommend it if you want to spend quality time in NATURE. Waskesiu lake village is a neat place to stay, to walk at sunset with the family, to stay close to nature even in a small hotel. Endless trail system, numerous lakes and marinas make me come back each year. Don't miss to visit Grey Owl's cabin!

hector lagdon martinez grisales

Nice beache's at the main beach stores close by i love it everytime i came here

Jasper Bintner

Gorgeous! Bugs! Bogs!

Lucas Gilbertson

This is the hidden gem of Saskatchewan. Beautiful lakes, fishing, horseback riding, camping. You can bank on beautiful sunsets, eagles and pelicans, hearing loons call in the distance, and roasting hot dogs by the fire. This is a stunning place.

Nichole Enns

Beautiful and well appointed

Fran Armstrong

Great National Park! Lots of fun in the town but great open spaces for back country activities

Sebastian Kluth

Prince Albert National Park is one of the most beautiful parks to find in Canada. You can mainly hike and swim here while admiring the beauty of nature. There are many wild animals to be seen if you are calm and careful.

Dillon Howat

If you haven't been too the pa national park yet just go it's always worth the trip pristine undeveloped wilderness as good as you get only a little over an hour from Prince Albert

MoreThanOne Drifter

Always enjoy visiting. Beautiful place.

Ashton Neurauter

Lots of wildlife nice lake

malathi sadagopalan

The best place to chill out .pack your bags and stay there for a week.

Allan Macdonald

Great place! Well worth the visit!

JB Wall

A wonderful park to camp and recreate at. Thank you for the wonderful get away.

Derek Stollery

Reasonable park with excellent fishing and camping

azna how

An amazing place.

Maggie Thurmeier

I've seen three moose in the first hour here. Great amenities, including sheltered picnic areas with wood burning stoves

Dawn Ledbetter

We visited late May. Beautiful, well-maintained campground. We especially liked the Red Deer bicycle trail. It is paved through town and wide and clear, mostly grass around the perimeter of the park. We picked up the Red trail in town by the beach and followed it through town, by and around the golf course, and around behind the residential sections, then picked up the Yellow trail where it meets the Red trail and followed it around to the Red Deer campground entrance. I'm only describing all that to say the downhill ride from the woods area before getting to the Yellow trail is an absolute thrill! We had not realized we had climbed that far uphill, the uphill rises being pretty small and relatively painless. Definitely recommend this trail in this direction (counterclockwise).

Kim S

Very nice area and Waskesiu had some very family friendly interesting areas to go and check out. Some good interactive stuff for kids to teach them about the wilderness and the animals there. It had very nice picnic/bbq areas for families and groups of people. Interesting history of the area.

Jacklyn F (Prairie Girl)

If you think Saskatchewan is just flat, you haven't been here! Always a gorgeous place! friendly gate staff, super clean grounds, a great place to bring your family.

Alyssa Lukey

Beautiful park , lots of trails to explore. Friendly people

Dana-lee “The Canadian Traveler”

Lots of great trails! Excellent backcountry. Took some pictures of bears while I was there.

Chazz

If ya don't go here your missing out

H

The water was warm, the weather perfect. Everyone looked after everyone's elses things, and my kid had a great time. its $7.90 per adult after taxes for a 24 hour permit, and free for children.. which means I can definately take him back tonight if I wanted.

Richard Haubrich

Beautiful, peaceful winter destination

Peter Corkum

The park was great. Felt like we had the whole place to ourselves. The condos could use some updating but clean

Aiyan Abid

Wonderful place

balasan

The boreal forest extends northerly into the Canadian Shield area from the agricultural zones of southern Canada. Prince Albert National Park lies south of the Shield in landscapes that were shaped by Pleistocene glaciers that deposited glacial till, sand and other materials that were later colonized by trees and shrubs. The ecosystems of Prince Albert National Park are lush and productive. During the warm, humid summers there is abundant insect life and numerous fungi, sustaining a remarkable diversity of boreal birds and other wildlife. There are many lakes and rivers creating wonderful water systems for a variety of waterfowl.

Matt Swerhone

Great place. Town can be crowded but the park itself is incredible.

Luz Cerda (DominicanosEnSaskatchewan)

Loved this place, you can be in contact with the nature. Highly recommended. You should go there and relax for a while.

Xahid Hasan

Amazing place to spend the evening

Miles Burkholder

Fantastic views and trails. We have only done a few and will definitely be coming back.

Seb_46

Great lakes to Kayak, great mini golf, and very scenic locations. Super cramped trailer parks, though.

Sophie

Amazing landscape! So beautiful, even in spring time with frozen lakes .

Ervhil E-pilef

150 yrs canada day experience..so fun and a good place for picnic and family gathering..if there's occasion like that many people are going to watch the parade and be early as possible cause parking spot and picnic cottage are limited..first come first serve.!!!

Ahsan Pervez

Good

Daniel Folkins

Being from New Brunswick and living in Saskatoon, it feels like this is the closest reasonable place to spend some time in a forest. There are lots of places to hike, camp, or go out on the water. I have done front and back country camping in the area and always enjoy the peace and relaxation I am afforded. We really enjoy packing a lunch to cook in one of the many shelters in Waskesiu. On our visits up here we have seen lots of different wildlife: moose, deer, chipmunks, and various fish and birds. Bug spray is highly recommended!

Sahil Sahil Thakur

Love it here beautiful and nice place

SUSAN MASUSKAPOE

Lots of unexplored territory

Christopher Marotta

Well kept, a great way to spend a weekend!

Huy Nguyen

Beautiful and well kept nature. The resort town is clean yet can get pretty crowded.

Donovan G

Beautiful park with plenty to see and do!

Michael Lueck

Great views, amazing wildlife

Michael J

Park is very clean. Was a great quiet Sunday afternoon. Seen lots of wildlife!

Veronica Paton

Lots to do and see. Great family activities and amazing locations to enjoy

Purvil Jani

An ideal place for camping for a couple of days alongside quiet and beautiful lakes.

Sander Salen

Nothing really challenging or adventurous. But the Trail Signs were clear and the information brochures at the beginning of a Trail are a Plus. They should do something about the last Lookout Point (spruce river higland Trail) It was not worth the effort. But maybe that was because we visited this as our last stop after a Day of hiking.

Marv Penner

It's a beautiful park with something for everyone whether you like roughing it or the comforts of home. The scenery is always stunning.

Kayla Gerein

Great park with lots of surrounding lakes that are open to visit. The town has a few cute shops and restaurants available, along with a bike rental place. The beach area is well groomed with lots of playground equipment. Be sure to pick up …

stonesoup 55947

Very nice fun place to hand out

Ian Roach

Love this park! It never disappoints. Opportunities for everything from fine dining to backcountry excursions. Park staff are always wonderful to deal with.

Rory Hebb

We had an amazing time camping at Waskesiu this year. Getting out of the car at our campsite (Beaver Glen) we were greeted by an elk 5 meters away. The bugs weren't too bad early June either and very few people were around early in the week. We did the Grey Owls cabin trip, canoeing the majority of the way. It wasn't easy for two intermediate canoers but despite the wind and waves we made it safe and sound. Along the trip we saw Elk, Deer, Black Bears, Rabbits, Blue Herons, Bald Eagles, golden eyes, whiskey jacks and fish jumping around us . It was really picturesque and the other visitors we ran into were great. I remembered as a kid Waskesiu being a place of rules and bug bites but going back was really great.

Brad Randall

A gem in the heart

Matt Jenkins

Fantastic, natural, wonderful, National park. Proud to be Canadian!

Patrick Bonello

A fantastic opportunity to enjoy stunning Canadian wildlife and the beautiful outdoors. Lots of walks and places to stay and picnic. The tourist centre is a good start to plan your visit.

Gordon

Waskesui is a wonderful, beautiful place with something for everyone, from total wilderness and fishing/ boating to fine Dining and shopping.

Bev Wiens

It was awesome is all i can say

K Walt

very customer friendly

Richard Berge

Beautiful national park... many, many lakes and camping spots. Countless places to fish and enjoy the outdoors... Great places too many to list.

sindee smallboii

Waskasiu is always a beautiful place to go for a family outing, but remember sometimes that the weather isn't going to be always on your side lol.

Adam

One of the best National parks in Western Canada

Jaison Varghese

Highly Recommended for a weekend. Good place for family. The park is open all year but the most visited period is from May to September. Flycatchers, Tennessee warblers, red-necked grebe, brown creepers, nuthatches, three-toed woodpeckers, bald eagle, osprey, great blue herons, common loon are just a few of the many bird species to be seen in this park. Elk, black bear, fox, moose, beaver, deer, otter are also seen.

Jarret Kenke

The fresh air and all the shops especially the bakery

Dean Ehrmantraut

The weather was perfect for a long bike up 263.

David Barentsen

Visiting this park is a very rich experience. There are activities for all interests and physical abilities, from scenic drives to canoeing and the like. The picnic facilities are nicely maintained. Some of the beach areas are small and can be really crowded. Wauskesiu itself smacks of a typical tourist town, but it's very clean and a nice walk once you have had enough of the bush. It's not possible to experience everything in just a day trip, so either have a really fixed plan or better yet plan to stay a while and take your time to enjoy it. I will definitely be back.

John Kennedy

Stunning, golf, fishing beaches, perfect!!

Clint Janzen

Been going here since I was a young boy now I'm taking my family here. The parks trails sights and services never disappoint

Cal Martin

A National Treasure. Beautiful scenery, wildlife abound. Wonderful hiking trails.

Robert Bryant

Pride of SASKATCHEWAN. A definite worthwhile vacation choice. So many options for everyone.

Lee Smith

A provincial and national treasure. We stopped to have a picnic lunch at the Park Office in Waskesiu after a cold day of snowshoeing and the worker there was more than accommodating, allowing our dog inside to warm up as well. Very proud of PANP as a Canadian and Saskatchewanian.

Great place to explore,endless trails and views. Very friendly people everywhere, everything you need and want all in one small park/town. Great places to eat, my personal favorite is Petes Terrace always lively in there and food is unreal. Looking to get out in the waters or trails make sure you go check out grey owl centre, they have a wide veritey of equipment that will keep you outside all day. Theres alot more the park offers than just listed here so go explore enjoy guys!

Francine Armstrong

I was a child of seven years, when we spent our 1st family vacation staying in the then named Manvilles Bungalows. We rented one of the smallest ones available, so space was limited for our family of 2 adults, and 2 children. I remember it as a palace however, and the Chuckwagon Dinner heated up on the vintage stove. The following year, we rented a cabin down at the Narrows, as they were larger, and not quite as expensive. This was the summer of 1957, and I have returned to the Narrows each summer since. The semi wilderness camping with no powered sites, national park rules prohibiting ATV's, personal watercraft, and routinely enforced quiet times etc. over the years has attracted a similarly minded group of regular campers, plus younger family groups seeking genuine peace, tranquility, and safety for children. The fact that Waskesiu has been a national treasure for many decades, has kept it from the pollution, developments, that many other resort areas are now faced with. The lake itself is still clean, with no junk from old buildings, farms etc around its perimeter. I am now close in time to celebrating my 70th birthday, and plan on doing so up the the Waskesiu Narrows, as I have done in many previous years !

Nick Cowie

As good as it gets for sasky standards. Not a whole lot to do vs the mountains. Summers are a good time to visit. There are alot of bugs and the lake is pretty cold compared to most B.C lakes. In winter the place is a ghost town, so depends what your into.

Absolutely best time to visit September. The fall foliage was amazing. Not very busy but lots still open. Warm enough that we sat on the beach a couple of days. Great hikes in and around Waskesiu. We stayed in MH in the campground, full service mostly level with space between units. Will definitely be back again next year.

Cheyenne Ballantyne

It's so beautiful out there.

Michele May

We were in Waskesiu for three days. We canoed The Hang Heart Lakes, Which was fabulous and Waskesiu Lake west of the Narrows, which was very good. We tried the Waskesui River but it was too shallow and scraped up my homemade canoe quite badly. I wouldn't take advice from the visitor centre very seriously. We also did some excellent hiking. The fall colours were amazing. The restaurant options are limited in fall and fairly pricey but the food very good. We had fabulous weather but that can change very rapidly in the north.

Jenna-Lyn Van Zyl

We enjoyed the walking trails and shops!

Dwayne Rabbitskin

Beautiful scenery this time of year with the leaves changing

Bruce H

Great place to get away winter or summer

Dante Melchiorre

Such a beautiful country we have north of Prince Albert. Was up for May long weekend and had a blast. It is always so relaxing to get out in nature. Actually stayed in a cabin in La Ronge and fished Mackay lake. Pretty good fishing but I would of had a good time if we caught nothing. Camp grounds are well maintained. Was the first weekend to fish but I even saw the fish cleaning shack getting cleaned. If you like the out doors it is worth the visit to one of Saskatchewan's many lakes, camp grounds and tourist sites.

neha kaushik

Nice place to visit. Close to nature and good for trekking.

Nicholas Inder

It was so beautiful. I've only been in the winter when no one else was around but definitely want to come back in the summer. Stopped by the beach and wished it was 60 degrees warmer.
