context_page_description: Saskatoon Island Provincial Park is a provincial park located in northern Alberta, Canada. It is located 20 kilometers west of Grande Prairie in the Peace River Country, on the southern shore of Saskatoon Lake.
context_section_description: The park offers year round camping, berry picking and wildlife viewing. Although boating and swimming on the lake was once popular, those activities are presently not recommended due to low water levels. Camping is offered year round, with 103 unit campground and 55 electrical hook-ups, including 3 paved and powered camp sites with washrooms and showers. A day use area with fire pits, picnic tables and basic facilities is maintained on the lake shore.
  A boat ramp is maintained on the northern side of the park. Saskatoon berries are ripe in early summer.
  Cross-country skiing is practiced in the park, with 6.4 kilometers (4.0 mi) of trails groomed in the winter for skiing, and for cycling in summer. 4.2 kilometers (2.6 mi) of hiking trails are maintained on the former island, including 1.2 kilometers (0.75 mi) wheelchair-accessible trails.
  A yearly swan festival in organized in the park each April by the Friends of Saskatoon Island Cooperating Association. It celebrates the spring migration of the trumpeter swan.
