Notikewin Provincial Park

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:

    In sci-fi convention, life-forms that hadn’t developed space travel were mere prehistory—horse-shoe crabs of the cosmic scene—and something of the humiliation of being stuck on a provincial planet in a galactic backwater has stayed with me ever since.
    Barbara Ehrenreich (b. 1941)

    Is a park any better than a coal mine? What’s a mountain got that a slag pile hasn’t? What would you rather have in your garden—an almond tree or an oil well?
    Jean Giraudoux (1882–1944)
