Where is slave lake canada

Characterized by many as "The Jewel of the North," Slave Lake is a progressive, dynamic town and one of Canada's ten youngest communities.

A tourists hub, within 15 minutes of the town you will discover Lesser Slave Lake Provincial Park , Alberta's 6th largest Provincial Park, Canada's northernmost Bird Observatory , Alberta's easternmost foothills, Marten Mountain and the most beautiful stretch of white sand beaches in Alberta!

Lesser Slave Lake, the largest lake entirely within the Alberta border, boasts one of the finest recreational beaches in the province. The Pelican Mountain range is to the northeast where Marten Mountain rises some meters above sea level. The views from Marten Mountain are scenic and beautiful, something rarely found in the Boreal Forest. Slave Lake offers year round activities for sightseers and outdoor enthusiasts alike.

In the summer months the town hosts various events such as Riverboat Daze, concerts and fishing tournaments. When the cold weather sets in, ice fishing presents anglers with an opportunity to hook a big Walleye, Northern Pike Jackfish or Whitefish. As well, incredible cross-country skiing and back-country sledding are favourite winter pastimes enjoyed by many. Meet the people trying to help.
