Secluded and serene, this northern park guarantees a sandy beach and shallow, warm waters ideal for swimming, fishing and canoeing. Watch for birds and other wildlife on a 5.1 km (2 hour) nature trail that meanders past beaver ponds, through wetlands and forest. Nine interpretive stops along the way explain the flora and fauna.

Pakwash Lake is teeming with smallmouth bass, walleye, whitefish and northern pike. Launch your boat in the park and explore big Pakwash Lake. Park staff will point out the best canoe routes in the area. Ask them about Canoe Route 74, a 233-km route paddled by natives, fur traders and prospectors.

The park is home to a variety of wildlife, including moose, black bears, deer, otters, minks, bald eagles and ospreys. The shallow, clean waters of Pakwash Lake and the park's 1.5 km sandy beach are ideal for family swimming. Play soccer or baseball on the large playing field in the day-use area or take the children to the playground.

There are 69 camping sites, of which 26 are electrical sites. The campground and day-use areas are operated by Ear Falls 2000, the Township of Ear Falls, in partnership with the MNR-Ontario Parks.
