what to expect

Williamson Provincial Park, located on the south Valleyview shore of Sturgeon Lake, is a small, 17-hectare park established in 1960. It is named after Alexander Williamson, one of the area’s first settlers, who came to Canada from Scotland in the 1920s. Here you can go sailing, wind surfing, fishing or canoeing. Or enjoy the beach, go for a swim and spend evenings around the campfire.
