Rowan's Ravine Provincial Park, Provincial park on Last Mountain Lake, Saskatchewan, Canada.
Rowan's Ravine Provincial Park is a provincial park on Last Mountain Lake in Saskatchewan where visitors can enjoy sandy shores, nature trails, and overnight facilities. The grounds feature open camping areas and wooded paths that run along the waterfront.
The park was established in 1960 by the Saskatchewan government to open the Last Mountain Lake shoreline to the public. This development transformed an undeveloped lakeside area into a destination for local recreation.
Every September the marina hosts the Last Mountain Fall Walleye Classic, a large fishing tournament that draws anglers to the harbour where Rowan's Ravine creek meets Last Mountain Lake. The harbour also holds G&S Marina Outfitters and a convenience store, and Mama Bear's Den is a licensed restaurant inside the park.
Access is via Highway 220, about 25 km from Strasbourg, with Uhl's Bay less than a mile away. Underwood Campground sits in the far north-west corner beside Last Mountain Lake, Elmwood Campground runs along its east side, and both loops have electrical hook-ups, showers, laundry and potable water. Sani-dumps are available, and the beach lies on a point of land, so one side is usually sheltered from the wind.
The beach sits on a point of land jutting into Last Mountain Lake, so at least one side is usually sheltered from the wind. Every tree around the beach was planted: before the park existed the area was open grassland with no trees at all.
