Kidney Lake Trail

Except for a few derelict buildings, no signs remain of the farming and logging that cleared this park near Cochrane.

Boreal forest surrounds the glacially formed 26 kettle lakes and eskers where you can paddle quietly on the green waters, fish for stocked trout or follow trails for signs of birds and furry wildlife. Fishing Several of the 26 lakes in the park are stocked with trout and others are full of perch or northern pike.

In Deception Creek, cast your line for northern pike and walleye. Wildlife Viewing Small furry animals live here -- beaver, muskrat, otter, marten, fox, ermine, mink, fisher and chipmunk. So do moose and bear. At night, a wolf might howl.
