Directions

Welcome to Beauvais Lake Provincial Park, where forested hills meet prairie skies. Named for the Beauvais homesteading family, this area is rich with Indigenous history, ranching heritage, and strong community ties. Today, it’s a favourite destination for day-trippers, campers, and cottagers seeking lake views and memorable outdoor adventures.

With 30 km of trails, there’s plenty to explore. In summer, enjoy birdwatching, fishing, hiking, biking, paddling, boating, and free interpretive programs and theatre shows. Winter offers ice fishing, snowshoeing, cross country skiing, and winter camping.

The park features car accessible, walk-in, and group campsites with powered and unpowered options. Amenities vary by season as the park shifts between reservations and first-come, first-served service. Year-round outhouses, two playgrounds, seasonal potable water, a sani-dump, and seasonal firewood sales are available for visitors. 

Wildlife is abundant as moose, deer, black bears, grizzlies, and cougars all roam the area. Please recreate responsibly by carrying bear spray and keeping campsites clean and attractant-free.
