Musker Trout Pond

Musker Pond is a small trout pond near the Resort Village of Candle Lake and just north of the Sandy Bay Campground.

It is stocked yearly with rainbow trout, there is no boat launch but it is suitable for paddlers. (Boat motors forbidden)

There is ample parking available (Provincial Park pass required), a fish cleaning hut, as well as a wheelchair-accessible dock for fishing. There is also a covered picnic area and a few fire pits.

A short 1km hiking/walking path goes around the pond.

This is a great family-friendly destination, especially when Candle Lake is rough!

Really nice little trout pond just outside of the Resort Village. Has a walking trail around the pond, and an accessible fishing dock. Great place to visit when Candle Lake is too rough.
