Overview

About

Colorful butterflies and flowers dot the shoreline of Pipestern Lake, and offer the perfect landscape for a weekend of low key, peaceful adventure. Sure you can kick things up a notch with some waterskiing or boating, but we recommend taking to the waters in style via canoe or kayak. From your vessel you can birdwatch along the shores, or cast a line for your dinner. What’s better than a fresh lake to table meal at your campsite? With Jamestown and Farg nearby for some local flavor, a trip to Pipestern is sure to make you feel right at home on the prairie.

When to go

The ideal time to visit Pipestem Lake is during the late spring through early fall, when the weather is warm and the landscape is vibrant. Summer months offer the full array of activities, though they can also be the busiest. Consider a trip in the shoulder seasons of late spring or early fall for a quieter experience. Winters can be harsh, with activities limited due to snow and ice.

Know before you go

  • Check the weather forecast before your visit to ensure a safe and enjoyable experience.
  • Be mindful of park rules and regulations to preserve the natural habitat for wildlife and future visitors.
  • Wear appropriate attire and footwear for outdoor activities and changing weather conditions.
  • While exploring, keep an eye out for local wildlife and maintain a respectful distance.
  • Remember to pack out all trash and leave no trace to keep the park pristine.
