Piprell Lake
Piprell Lake is a small (330-acre) stocked trout lake located 46km NNE of the Resort Village of Candle Lake and 115km NNE of Prince Albert. The lake is accessible from Highway 913 (gravel).
**Piprell Lake was pretty significantly impacted by the SHOE Fire. Several areas around the lake burnt, including the Tiger Bay Campground and storage compound at Rainbow Lodge.**
The lake is a very popular fishing destination with four different kinds of stocked trout found in the lake (brown, rainbow, tiger, and splake). The season for stocked trout on the lake is open year round.
Many other fishing lakes can be found within a short distance of Piprell Lake. [Clarence-Steepbank Provincial Park](/clarence-steepbank-lakes-provincial-park/) is just north and [Narrow Hills Provincial Park](/narrow-hills-provincial-park/) is just east of the lake.
There are also many ATV and snowmobile trails in the area.
Piprell Lake Recreation Site is a leased recreation site at the north end of the lake. The recreation site is leased by Rainbow Lodge and has a boat launch, camping, a store with gas, and showers. The lodge also offers a rental chalet and rental cabins.
**As of 2025 there is now cell service at the lake and along most Highway 913.**
Piprell Lake was named after Gordon Leslie Piprell who was killed in WW2.
