Pinkney Lake
Pinkney Lake is a small (350 acre) fishing lake located 32km NNE of the Resort Village of Candle Lake and 101km NNE of Prince Albert.
A fairly wide cut line down to the lake was made during the SHOE Fire in 2025 that went through the camping area, the boat launch area wasn't touched.
The lake is within Whiteswan Lake (Whelan Bay) Recreation Site and is located just east of the [much larger Whiteswan Lakes](/whiteswan-lakes/). There is a primitive boat launch on the lake and no other amenities/facilities.
Walleye, Northern Pike and Yellow Perch can be found in Pinkney Lake. The lake is periodically stocked with Walleye.
Pinkney Lake is accessible off of Highway 913 (gravel), the access road into the lake is very rough. Take your time and make sure your vehicle has enough clearance.
Pinkney Lake was named after Charles Frederick Pinkney, who lost his life in WW2.
