Queen Elizabeth II Wildlands Provincial Park is a non-operating park with no maintained public facilities or services. Visitors should be prepared to use appropriate route finding and safety practices as interior travel beyond access points requires navigating in remote semi-wilderness environments. Camping is not permitted at Victoria Falls, Hunter's Lake, Robinson Lake, Little Gull Lake, and Devil's Lake.
The park offers several access points, including:
Devil's Lake Access Point: Located at 1115 Devil's Lake Road in the Township of Minden Hills.
Black River Road Access Point: Situated at 1526 Black River Road in the City of Kawartha Lakes.
Given the park's undeveloped nature, it's essential to be well-prepared with navigation tools and safety equipment. Cellular service is unreliable within the park, so do not depend on it for communication or navigation. Always inform someone of your plans and expected return time before venturing into the park.
