Elk Island National Park is located approximately one hour from Edmonton city centre, via Highway 16 East Yellowhead. The park is open 365 days a year and is an excellent location to view wildlife, play a round of golf, hike or walk a trail, or just relax. A valid National Parks pass is required to enter the park.
During the summer, the park offers a semi-serviced campground. Hotels, motels and Bed & Breakfasts, as well as gasoline, groceries, and other services are available in communities surrounding the park. (http://www.pc.gc.ca/eng/p...)
