Why Visit Wabamun Lake Provincial Park

Wabamun Lake is a large lake park with 276 treed campsites, unserviced and powered sites, three group camping areas, and three group day-use rentable picnic shelters. Alberta Parks also lists trails, a large beach, swimming, boating, sailing, playgrounds, a park store, beach concession, and boat rentals.

Activities include beach use, birding, camping, canoeing and kayaking, fishing, front-country hiking, mountain biking and cycling, power boating, sailing, swimming, water skiing, wind surfing, geocaching, fat biking, and electric bicycles. Water activities carry aquatic invasive species reminders.

Birding is a strong official hook. Alberta Parks notes open water from area power plants and birds including hooded mergansers, bald eagles, mallards, gulls, terns, rails, herons, loons, kingfishers, sandpipers, ospreys, grebes, ravens, gray jays, and great gray owls.

Check the seasonal boat-launch advisory before bringing a vessel.

Busy summer days make reservations and launch checks especially useful.
