Lower Fishing Lake

Lower Fishing Lake is a popular recreational lake in Narrow Hills Provincial Park. The lake is located about 115km north of Prince Albert with pavement most of the way except for the last few kilometres.

The park office for the Provincial Park is located here, as well as most of the services provided by the park.

There is a large provincial campground at the lake, a boat launch, cabins, playgrounds, and a very nice beach. This is a great family-friendly lake with lots to do. It is also just a short drive from dozens of other lakes offering endless fishing, paddling, and exploring opportunities.

Pine Ridge Resort with cabin rentals, seasonal RV sites, and a small store is located beside the campground.

A short drive from the campground is the Esker Trail which gives you an incredible view and access to several different hiking trails.

This lake is an old favourite of mine, and well worth the visit!

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

Great to be back at Lower Fishing Lake. Camped here for 2 nights, only able to get into the overflow but it was quiet over there. Had a wonderful time as always!

Narrow Hills Scenic Drive

This scenic drive is a 19km round trip with stunning views over the valley. You'll drive along the highest ridge in Narrow Hills while looking down on various lakes and forests. There are interpretive signs along the way as well as access to hiking trails on a few lakes.

The drive goes from near the park office to a turnaround at a warm-up shack.

The road is very narrow, and conditions can be bad depending on the time of year.

In the winter the road is groomed as a snowmobile trail.
