Area

The original 'core' area of Wabakimi Provincial Park that was regulated in 1983 comprised about 155,000 hectares (ha). In 1997, the park was expanded by about 737,000ha creating a total area of 892,061ha. Wabakimi is Ontario's second largest provincial park, larger than Algonquin, Quetico or Woodland Caribou but with far fewer visitors and no entry quota or campsite assignment systems.

Descriptions of land uses and activities currently permitted in each of these parks are available in their respective policy reports posted in the Crown Land Use Policy Atlas.
