Sturgeon River Provincial Park, Provincial park in Sudbury District, Canada

The Sturgeon River Provincial Park extends over 79 square kilometers, protecting a 70-kilometer section of the Sturgeon River and its surrounding banks.

The provincial park, established in 1989, underwent a substantial expansion in 2005, increasing its protected area from 33 to 79 square kilometers.

The park forms a natural connection with neighboring protected areas, including Lady Evelyn-Smoothwater, Solace, Chiniguchi Waterway, and Obabika River Provincial Parks.

Visitors need permits for camping at any of the 35 backcountry sites, while day trips through the park do not require formal authorization.

The river contains 65 distinct rapids where paddlers must demonstrate advanced navigation skills through bedrock outcrops, narrow channels, and sandy shores.
