Anglin Lake
Anglin Lake is a large (3,334 acre) top-rated recreational lake located 23km NNW of the Village of Christopher Lake and 59km NNW of Prince Albert. The lake is accessible from Highway 953.
The many amenities, trails, location and natural beauty of the lake make this a popular destination. Although it's a decent sized lake, it's split up into several sections making it a great paddling and boating destination.
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, the community of Anglin Lake, and many kilometres of hiking/biking/cross-country ski trails at the lake.
Walleye, Northern Pike, White Sucker and Yellow Perch can be found in Anglin Lake. The lake is stocked periodically with walleye.
The current lake is actually a reservoir created by a dam on the Spruce River that backed up the river and connected several smaller lakes resulting in the lake we know today.
