Christmas Tree Harvest at PA National Park

Haul out the holly!

Parks Canada is pleased to present the 10th annual Christmas Tree Harvest at Prince Albert National Park. From November 22 to December 23rd, visitors are invited to pick out a young spruce or pine tree in a designated area of the Waskesiu Community Fuel Break.

The Community Fuel Break is an area of trees around Waskesiu that helps slow the speed of an approaching wildfire and provides time to evacuate the population or defend the community, if required.

The Christmas Tree Harvest helps maintain the community fuel break by reducing the amount of flammable coniferous trees in the area.

Bring a handsaw, sled, and a thermos of hot chocolate to keep you warm while you and your friends and family search for the perfect Christmas tree.

Christmas Tree Activity Passes and maps are available free of charge and must be picked up at Visitor Centre prior to cutting your tree.

Prince Albert National Park looks forward to welcoming visitors again with the Canada Strong Pass offering free admission from December 12, 2025 to January 15, 2026. A valid park pass from the Visitor Centre is required until December 12, 2025. Purchase your park pass at the Visitor Centre or entry gate Automated Payment Machine.
