Lac Sante (Boat launch only)

Lac Sante is located approximately 22 km north east of Two Hills. To get there you need to follow Hwy 45 east of Two Hills to Hwy 36 and head North 10 km (6 miles) crossing the North Saskatchewan River. At the first paved road north of the river turn east and follow the Paved black top 8 km (5 miles) and then continue around the curve and head approximately 5 km (3 miles) north until you hit the lake and the boat launch amidst the cluster of private lots.  Unfortunately the campsites around the lake are all private but you are able to launch you boat at the County boat launch and take in some of the lakes great fishing. Another place to get away from the everyday.

 

Enjoy some great walleye and pike fishing.

 


North Saskatchewan River

The North Saskatchewan River winds through the north end of our County and previously served as the areas lifeline carrying  supplies to these once remote communities.. There are many breath taking views and some great fishing in this large, fast moving, mountain fed river.  There are many different ways to access the North Saskatchewan river and it's wide variety of recreational potential.  A public boat launch in the community of Duvernay along with day camping use at the Desjarlais Crossing are just a few of the locations where this great resource can be accessed. The river valley is also host to a variety of all terrain/horse/walking trails that are maintained by local volunteers and the Lakeland Breakers Snowmobile Club.

 

Enjoy the great variety of fishing in the river but always remember to consult updated regulations for the latest changes in limits and seasons.
