Lady Evelyn-Smoothwater Provincial Park is a remote park in central Ontario, Canada, near Lake Temagami.
This park encompasses Smoothwater Lake, Makobe Lake, the Ishpatina Ridge (highest point in Ontario), and most of the Lady Evelyn River. It is well known for its protection of some of the last remaining stands of old growth forest in Ontario.
As a "wilderness" park, there are few services offered to visitors but it is ideal for backcountry canoeing, nature exploration and wildlife viewing.
