EV Charging Stations Available

Free, year-round Level 2 charging at Waskesiu Main Beach in Prince Albert National Park, Saskatchewan. Four stations total, two Tesla, two universal J1772, first-come first-served. The park sits in the boreal transition zone where prairie grassland gives way to northern forest, and Waskesiu Lake is the heart of it. The nearest DC fast charging is in Prince Albert, about 52 miles away, with FLO, Tesla Supercharger, and ChargePoint stations. Beyond that, the next option is Shellbrook, roughly 49 miles out, with FLO. That is a long stretch either way, so charge up in Prince Albert before you head into the park or take advantage of the free Level 2 at the beach while you paddle.

Four charging stations (2 Tesla, 2 Universal) are available at the Waskesiu Main Beach parking lot. The electric vehicle charging stations are available on a first-come, first-serve basis throughout the year. There is no fee to charge vehicles at the Tesla or J1772 charging stations.
