Michipicoten Provincial Park is a park in Ontario, Canada, located at the mouth of the Michipicoten River. The park preserves the ruins of a French trading post that operated from the early 1700s until it was abandoned by the Hudson’s Bay Company in 1904.

It is a non-operating park, meaning there are no facilities or services. Fishing and hiking are the only permitted activities.
