Nature
Queen Elizabeth Provincial Park is a small lakeside recreation area on the eastern shore of Cardinal Lake in northern Alberta, northwest of Grimshaw. Established on March 1, 1956, it was known as Lac Cardinal Provincial Park until August 1, 1978, when it was renamed to commemorate Queen Elizabeth II’s tour of Alberta. Though only 0.8 square kilometres in size, the park supports swimming, volleyball, camping, hiking, and a range of boating activities, and it is also a noted birdwatching site with 141 species recorded. In winter, it offers 4.5 kilometres of non-groomed cross-country ski trails.
