what to expect

Crow Lake Provincial Park is located 120 km south of Fort McMurray along Hwy 63. Boreal forest surrounds this park, which offers rustic camping and paddling opportunities on Crow Lake, a non-motorized lake. Since the 2002 forest fire, natural forest regeneration has created a ecosystem that supports abundant wildlife. Crow Lake Ecological Reserve on the south shore protects diverse habitats, attracting a wide variety of bird species year-round.
