Notikewin Provincial Park is a provincial park located in northwestern Alberta, Canada, 37 km east of Manning.
The park is located at the confluence of the Peace River (which surrounds the park on three sides) and Notikewin River. Crummy Lake is also located in the park. At almost 120 km2 (46 sq mi), it is one of the largest provincial parks in Alberta, and the northern most to be listed as such (Wood Buffalo National Park and other wildland parks are situated higher up north).

Famous quotes containing the words provincial and/or park:
“With respect to a true culture and manhood, we are essentially provincial still, not metropolitan,—mere Jonathans. We are provincial, because we do not find at home our standards; because we do not worship truth, but the reflection of truth; because we are warped and narrowed by an exclusive devotion to trade and commerce and manufacturers and agriculture and the like, which are but means, and not the end.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“The park is filled with night and fog,
The veils are drawn about the world,”
—Sara Teasdale (1884–1933)
