The area around Hinton and the Northern Rockies ha

The area around Hinton and the Northern Rockies has a remarkable variety of fishing opportunities. There are no shortages of lakes, rivers, creeks, and streams available to you when out exploring our area. Have you found a favourite fishing spot in the Hinton waterways?

➡️ Heading into the National Park to fish? If so you’ll need to have a National Park fishing licence, which can be picked up at the Explore Hinton Visitor Information Centre.

Our Centre will be staffed for the summer season soon, but until then you can stop by Monday to Friday from 9-5 and staff from the Chamber of Commerce can help you purchase your licence.
