Anglin Lake

Anglin Lake is a large (3,334 acre) top-rated recreational lake located 23km NNW of Christopher Lake (Village).

The far west part of the lake is within Prince Albert National Park with the rest of the lake in Great Blue Heron Provincial Park.

There are several campgrounds, three boat launches, several cabin developments, and many kilometres of hiking/biking/cross-country ski trails at the lake. The many amenities, location and natural beauty of the lake make this a popular destination.

The lake is accessible from Highway 953 and was last stocked in 2023 with 300,000 Walleye Fry.

This lake has been personally visited by myself, Matthew Siemens.

I basically grew up at the lake. Ive spent uncountable amount of hours and days exploring all this lake has to offer. kinda view my self as a subject location expert on this lake. Sad as a huge portion of the lake is old growth and starting to fall in the wind... in a decade or two it will be stunning again

Put the canoes in at the bridge and paddled up to Anderson Point Campground for a swim before heading back. It was a beautiful day and a great paddle. Since Anglin is split up into several smaller lakes it makes it a nice lake to paddle.

Lakes in Prince Albert National Park

Prince Albert National Park is home to some gorgeous lakes that attract visitors from around the world every year. Many of these lakes, like Waskesiu, Kingsmere, Crean and Ajawaan have names that will be familiar to people across Canada and around the world.

According to the park website, there are over 1,500 lakes within Prince Albert National Park. We have only been able to find records for 83 of these lakes. The rest are most likely small and unnamed. Many of these lakes are relatively inaccessible with no road access requiring either a float plane, canoe, hiking, or some combination of these to access.

Waskesiu Lake

Waskesiu Lake is the most well know lake in the park as well has having the most services and being the easiest to access. Thousands flock to Waskesiu Lake every year. Looking to camp, hike, paddle, swim, and enjoy the hustle and bustle of the townsite.

Kingsmere Lake

Kingsmere is a popular fishing, canoeing, and hiking destination in its own right. but is also used as a transit to Ajawaan Lake.

Ajawaan Lake

Although a smaller and more difficult to get to lake. Ajawaan Lake is famous as the location of Grey Owl's Cabin

Crean Lake

Crean Lake is the largest lake within Prince Albert National Park. It is only accessible by water (through the Hanging Heart Lakes) or by trail (19km out and back).

Fishing in Prince Albert National Park

Everyone fishing in PA National Park requires a valid Prince Albert National Park fishing permit. If you are under 16 years old you can either purchase a permit or accompany another permit holder who is 16 or older (If you don't purchase your own permit then the fish in your possession will count toward the permit holder's limit).

Prince Albert National Park fishing permits can be purchased at the Visitor Centre, entry gates, campground kiosks, and the marinas.

We've done our best to summarize the rules/regulations for fishing in the National Park but please refer to the official Parks Canada website for the most up to date information. https://parks.canada.ca/pn-np/sk/princealbert/activ/experiences/peche-fishing
