Clearwater River Provincial Park is a Canadian wilderness park in the boreal forest of northern Saskatchewan. The park begins at the south end of Lloyd Lake on the Clearwater River and includes territory on both sides of the river until it reaches the Alberta border.
The park includes the historic Methye Portage (Portage La Loche). The Methye Portage was designated a National Historic Site in 1933 and the Clearwater River was designated a Canadian Heritage River in 1986 due to their historical importance in Canada.
The Clearwater River offers experienced canoeists Class 2 to Class 4 rapids.
