Sup Trips or Routes around Edmonton

Browse the Map
Devon - Edmonton
North Saskatchewan River - This is a great canoe trip. You would think you are way further away from the big city than you are . The river valley is incredibly scenic. There are no rapids to speak of but some sections of the river will be a bit swifter than others. Headwinds tend to be a greater threat than rapids. This trip can either be done as a long day trip, or as an over night camping on Big Island. There several put in and take out options. Shorter day trips can be had in Edmonton by combining the various river access.
Elk Island National Park
Astotin Lake - A lake day trip 45min east of Edmonton in Elk Island National Park. Lots of opportunity to spot wildlife and birds on this one, give the bison lots of space... they win. Put in and take out is at the Astotin parking lot.
River Side
Big Lake - Great Lake for Edmonton adventurers looking to get out on the water. Loads of wildlife and a great city escape, located just 25 minutes outside of Edmonton.
Chickakoo Lake Recreation Area
Chickakoo Lake - A small lake just to the west of Edmonton. Has good tree protection so is more often than not pretty calm to paddle. The shoreline is reedy and boggy so it is hard to get out anywhere other than the boat launch.
Boat Dock
Hermitage Park Lake - A small lake in the NE of Edmonton, a nice spot to paddle if you are in the city and looking for a quick fix of on water time.
Allan Beach Resort
Hubbles Lake - A PRIVATE lake that will require you to pay an entry fee to use the beach front to launch. Located 30 mins or so west of Edmonton.
Staging Area
Islet Lake - A small, sheltered lake less than an hour from Edmonton. An abundance of bird life in the spring make this a popular canoeing and kayaking destination.
50 St NW, Edmonton to Highway 38 past Bruderheim
North Saskatchewan River - An over-nighter from 50 St NW, Edmonton, AB to before Ft. Saskatchewan, AB, then off to Highway 38 NorthWest of Bruderheim, AB. Each section took a full day (6 - 7 hours each with breaks).
Lake Access
Pigeon Lake - Awesome clean lake located 2 hours out of Edmonton. Great for a weekend get away.
Pigeon Lake Provincial Park
Pigeon Lake - The boat launch at the Pigeon Lake Provincial Park offers easy launching for kayaks and SUP's with a large dock and two lane boat launch. Traffic can be heavy on the weekends but there is a parking lot just north of the boat launch that is a short walk to the beach where kayak's and SUP's can also launch. Some of the best summer fishing is only a couple hundred yards offshore from the beach.
Boat launch and dock
Cardiff Pond - The size of Cardiff Pond is 11.6ha and is stocked with rainbow trout. The max depth is 11 m. This is used to be an old coal mine that was later filled with water. Not many weeds even late in the season. Be careful of fisherman's lines. This is a popular place to fish! This is not a circular pond and has different areas to explore which makes it fun for beginners.
