Overview

Elk Island National Park is 120 square kilometers (46 square miles) of fenced-in forest and prairie located about 32 kilometers (19 miles) east of Edmonton. Established in 1906 to protect dwindling wildlife stocks, it is now a prime attraction with a fine herd of bison as well as elk, wapiti, deer, beaver, coyotes, and a few bears. Although it is one of Canada's smallest national parks, there are all the opportunities for camping, hiking, fishing, and guided tours that you would expect. Check website for further details.

I loved Elk Island. My friend and I go there at night and I have some really great pictures! I really recommend going there during the night or day, either way you'll have a great time!

I get the idea of making the park pristine and untouched but come on. Cut the grass pick up the turds and make it nice. The place looks like an abandoned petting zoo. Oh ya thanks for charging me to get into this disaster of a national park. Cut the fences and let this one go. Sell it to someone with some ambition and turn it into something useful. Golf was terrible the weeds are taking over buy some round up you cheapos
