Fox Creek is a vibrant community located almost exactly halfway between Edmonton and Grande Prairie on Hwy 43. The town acts as a strong service centre for the active oil and gas industry surrounding the community and serves as an excellent location for travellers to stop, enjoy nature and stretch their legs.
Fox Creek, surrounded by beautiful forests, offers a vast variety of top notch outdoor activities. The town is well known for our quadding, hunting, fishing, ice fishing, incredibly groomed snowmobile trials and cross-country skiing. Take a trip out to one of our two lakes located just minutes from the town to enjoy a day with the family at the beach, a picnic by the water, day use camping areas that are perfect for any summer event, two very well taken care of campgrounds that offer private sites and free firewood, boat docks and the opportunity for many water sports.
Add to that, a full complement of recreation facilities; our brand new multiplex facility that boasts a swimming pool, arena, gymnasium, fitness centre, library and walking track, the scenic 9-Hole Silver Birch Gold Course with grass greens and a clubhouse that offers great food, men’s and ladies’ night and is host to many weekend tournaments. Tennis courts and baseball diamonds that come alive every June for our annual slo-pitch tournament and regular season minor and adult leagues. Stop in with your family to enjoy our brand new skate park, located conveniently beside the dog park, visit Marnevic Memorial Park featured as one of Canada’s top 150 coolest playgrounds, for a unique construction themed experience or wander next door to our world class bike park facility. If you’re wanting to enjoy the boreal forest, head out on one of our many trail systems that wind along our beautiful creeks through the forest. There is never a shortage of things to do, or places to visit to get active and get outside.
