Nipawin Lake
Nipawin Lake is a tiny stocked trout lake just off the road into Lower Fishing Lake in Narrow Hills Provincial Park about 115km N of Prince Albert and 52km NE of the Resort Village of Candle Lake.
The area around the lake was burnt by the SHOE Fire in 2025.
You might be surprised to see a Nipawin Lake over here but the entire provincial park was originally named Nipawin Provincial Forest and then Nipawin Provincial Park until the 90s.
The lake is stocked yearly with Brook Trout. Please note there is a custom limit for stocked trout on the lake.
There is a parking lot and a launch site for small boats/canoes accessible down a short trail at the lake. Please note that boat motors over 5hp are prohibited on the lake.
There are no services or amenities at the lake, but Lower Fishing Lake just down the road has a provincial park campground, washrooms, showers, beaches, and a small store.
