Nipekamew Lake
Search this page
Nipekamew Lake is a large fishing lake in central Saskatchewan. It is located 82km SSE of La Ronge, NE of Clarence Steepbank Provincial Park and NW of Narrow Hills Provincial Park.
Nipekamew Lake is located in the Northern Saskatchewan Administration District and is accessible from Highways 912 and 927. Highway 927 runs along the southern edge of the lake and heads west to East Trout Lake. Highway 912 follows the eastern shore of the lake.
The East Trout-Nipekamew Lakes Recreation site is located at the southern end of Nipekamew Lake and the southeastern shore of East Trout Lake. There are three resorts in the rec. site, but I believe only two are still in operation. Eagle Bay Resort is on the bay between East Trout Lake and Nipikemew Lake. Pine Grove Resort is further west on East Trout Lake. The boat launch in the rec. site is managed by Eagle Bay Resort.
Northern Pike, Yellow Perch, Walleye, Lake Whitefish, Burbot, White Sucker, Cisco and Longnose Sucker can be found in Nipekamew Lake. Please note there is a custom limit for northern pike on Nipekamew Lake.
