Looking for remote wilderness camping, abundant wildlife and excellent fishing opportunities? Look no further, Klua Lakes provides all this and more. Klua Lakes Protected Area offers visitors to this remote wilderness an impressive view of escarpments and cuesta topography (ridges with a steep face on one side and a gentle slope on the other).
Lush boreal forest surrounds the lakes that provide excellent walleye and northern pike fishing. Moose wade through the shallows and peregrine falcons hunt in the skies above. This area is truly impressive; enjoy a tranquil paddle in the summer or explore it via snowmobile in the winter. Either way, Klua Lakes is sure to leave you with a lasting impression and fond memories of a wilderness experience.
