Esker Lakes Provincial Park Review
Northern Ontario
🗓️ May 15 to September 27 (park operational), or early August for Blueberry Festival
Esker Lakes Provincial Park is a pleasant, family-oriented park located in Northern Ontario. It features small lakes ideal for canoeing and fishing, along with trails for hiking and sandy beaches. The park is surrounded by Boreal Forest, offering excellent bird-watching opportunities, and is notable for its numerous kettle lakes formed by glacial retreat and being part of the 250-kilometer Munro Esker.

"We recommend you come here during the Blueberry Festival in early August! Lots of exploration on walking trails and canoeing! We really enjoyed our stay and have Esker Lakes on our 'Return soon' list. We camped at Esker Lakes Provincial Park in a Fifth Wheel."
"Remote Location. Arrived at 16:30 - no staff at check in (reservation online) - maps were located outside. No problems. Spacious, some spectacular sites on water front. We camped at Esker Lakes."
"Esker Lakes Provincial Park is a quaint campground and natural area in Northern Ontario. This park is popular among RVers, front-country, and backcountry campers thanks to its endless views, towering cedars, and sparkling clean lakes. It's a stunning park situated in the beautiful boreal forest."
