Saskatchewan Parks - Narrow Hills

Relax on a cozy beach with a liberating breeze tickling your toes.  Trek the hills above the tiny Gem Lakes and admire the sparkling magic of the colourful reflections below.  There is more than just great fishing at Narrow Hills Provincial Park.

Avid anglers might be hard pressed to find time for it, though.  With 25 bodies of water suitable for fishing and another 30 within an hour's drive, Narrow Hills is an angler's dream.  In addition to the native walleye, perch and northern pike, there are stocked trout species including brown, lake, brook, cutthroat and tiger.  Wet your line in a region that boasts the greatest variety of fish species in Saskatchewan!
