Kinistino

Kinistino Lake lies in the parkland of eastern Saskatchewan, amid a country of lakes, wetlands and aspen groves. Its name is of Cree origin. The lake stands north of the Quill Lakes, in a region where grassland gives way to more wooded country. Indigenous communities have lived here for many generations, using the waters and surrounding land for fishing, hunting and gathering. Seasonal changes in water and vegetation shape the lake’s shores.
