Canoeing
There are many canoe routes through the park. Ask at the Trail Centre for maps and trip planning assistance.

Wildlife Viewing
Beavers activities, along with the terrain's poor drainage, have created a variety of wetlands. Watch for herons, kingfishers and loons on the water, mighty birds of prey including ospreys and hawks, forest fowl such as wild turkey and ruffled grouse, and warblers and vireos. White-tail deer and black bear are common. And coyotes, red fox, fisher, otter, mink, weasel, raccoons and other small mammals abound.


Boating
Motorboats are prohibited on the interior lakes. However, you may operate motors on most of the boundary lakes including Buck, Devil, Birch, Kingsford and Otter. Electric motors are permitted only on Big Salmon Lake. Water skiing, jet skis and tubes are prohibited at or near campsites or beaches.

Swimming
There are many small beaches within the park, but no day-use beaches.

Cycling - Mountain bikes are prohibited in the park.

Winter Activities
Cross-country skiing and snowshoeing are popular activities on 160 km of marked hiking trails. All-season camping is allowed - with a permit -- at the campsite clusters.
