Williamson Provincial Park

The park extends along the southern shore of Sturgeon Lake, featuring natural woodlands, gravel beaches, and diverse hiking trails throughout its boundaries.

Alexander Williamson, a Scottish settler who worked as a fire ranger and mail carrier in the 1920s, gave his name to this park established in 1971.

The park functions as an environmental education center where visitors learn about local ecosystems and participate in nature conservation programs.

Visitors have access to power hookups, tap water, fire pits, picnic tables, washrooms, and a playground, along with a boat launch for water activities.

The park serves as a nesting ground for Bonaparte's gulls, bald eagles, red-necked grebes, purple finches, northern waterthrushes, and hermit thrushes.
