Abraham Lake is located alongside the David Thompson Highway between Saskatchewan Crossing and Nordegg, Alberta. In summertime, this artificial lake is a stunning blue-green color which makes for some amazing photo opportunities. There is often a herd of bighorn sheep right along the highway too.
However, mid-winter is when this location really shines! When the lake freezes over, methane bubbles become trapped in the ice, which you can walk or even skate on. You can see right to the bottom. Ever walked on a bubbly, crystal-clear lake? It's a surreal experience and definitely worth checking out.

Voyageur Motel

10/10 Excellent

"I’ve been staying here on and off quite some time, the property is always clean. Less fresh with the great staff. I had made a mistake the one night and accidentally left my things in there and had a change of plans. The owner was cooperative and had refunded me. In good manner understandable. Recommend and will be back ! Thank you -Kenneth"
