Overview
A brief introduction to Makwa Lake Provincial Park
Makwa Lake, which is Cree for Loon Lake, is a lake in the west-central region of the Canadian province of Saskatchewan in the transition zone between parkland and boreal forest. The Battle of Loon Lake, which was last battle of the North-West Rebellion, happened at Steele Narrows, a strait at the entrance to Sanderson Bay on Makwa Lake. The site is now part of Steele Narrows Provincial Park.
Makwa Lake is home to a section of Makwa Lake Provincial Park, two Fist Nations (Thunderchild and Makwa Sahgaiehcan), and two communities (Loon Lake and Pine Cove). Pine Cove and Loon Lake are along the eastern shore and accessed from Highway 26 while Highway 699 runs along the southern shore and provides access to both provincial parks. The two First Nations each have two Indian reserves at the lake: Thunderchild 115S, Thunderchild 115Z, Makwa Lake 129, and Makwa Lake 129B. At the lake's outflow, at the north-east corner, is a small dam called Makwa Lake Control that is used to control lake levels.
