5 Activities to do; Summer 2018 in Prince Albert & Area

 

This gorgeous city is located on the south side of the North Saskatchewan River, and people often think that there isn’t much to do around Prince Albert, but we beg to differ! There are all sorts of fun things to get up to around Prince Albert and area and below we have listed only a few, but some of these are the most popular and entertaining activities around the city.

Lakes/Fishing

They don’t call Prince Albert “The Gateway to the North” for no reason! Believe it or not people travel from all over to come and see the beauty around this area, especially for fishing and camping in the summer around the Lake Lands. Some of the more popular lakes would be Waskesiu, Candle, and Emma, but there are plenty of smaller lakes to fish and explore that are more private and not commercialized. Just make sure you bring your fishing license and bug spray!
