The park has a wide, sandy beach that is suitable for sunbathing, picnicking and building sandcastles.
A playground is located near the beach.
There are forested picnic spots near the beach.
Miquelon Lake is strongly influenced by fluctuating water levels. Current low lake levels make it more suitable for non-motorized aquatic activities such as kayaking and canoeing. There are no launching facilities for power boats.
Miquelon Lake is fed by surface and subsurface springs which are high in naturally-occurring salts and sulfates.
Lower lake levels have concentrated the salts and sulfates. This diminishes water quality for swimming and contributes to odours in summer.
The saline water also prevents establishment of fish populations.
The condition of the lake is not favourable for swimming. This is due to large amounts of vegetation, algae (not blue-green algae), insects and birds.
Pets are not permitted on the beach.
Biking & Hiking
Miquelon has an interconnecting trail system, located along the park's knob and kettle terrain. Trails are marked on the park map and have directional signs at trail junctions.
Park trails are suitable for hiking or mountain biking.
Shoreline Path is paved - suitable for any bike, rollerblades, strollers and wheelchairs.
Explore aquatic and winged life around Grebe Pond or try matching tracks to animals. Paint a beautiful water colour landscape or search for constellations in the sky.
The backpacks include everything you need to start your own nature discovery and are available during summer.
