Mississagi Provincial Park is a natural environment-class provincial park north of Elliot Lake, in Algoma District, Ontario, Canada. It lies on the Boland River, a tributary of the Little White River, which is itself a tributary of the Mississagi River. The park is accessed via Highway 639.
The park has a rugged landscape of ancient hills and clear lakes with seven hiking trails. Together with surrounding areas, it offers more than 60 kilometres (37 mi) of trails that cross the rugged Penokean Hills.[3][4]
It is an operating park requiring a permit for day and overnight use. Facilities include a total of 72 campsites (car accessible and walk-in backcountry sites), an amphitheatre, boat launches and docks (on Semiwite Lake and Flack Lake), park store, and picnic shelter. The park is used for recreational activities such as biking, boating, canoeing, fishing, hiking, swimming, and hunting.[3]
