Narrow Hills Provincial Park is a northern boreal forest provincial recreational park in the Canadian province of Saskatchewan. It is located in a hilly plateau called the Cub Hills and contains several recreational facilities and over 25 accessible lakes within its boundaries. The geographical features of the park, including the lakes, valleys, and lowlands were formed over 10,000 years ago during the last ice age. The town of Smeaton is the closest community and it is located 70 kilometres (43 mi) to the south.

The park was established in 1934 as Nipawin Provincial Forest (later renamed Nipawin Provincial Park), and was renamed Narrow Hills in the 1990s. The park's boundaries were also changed with the renaming.

Hanson Lake Road, which begins at Smeaton, is the main highway through the park. Other highways in the park include 120, 913, and 920.

In May and June of 2025, the 500,000-hectare (1,200,000-acre) Shoe Fire burned through the area closing the park, burning vast swathes of forest, and destroying several buildings. According to Paul Johnson, an assistant deputy minister with Saskatchewan's ministry of parks, culture and sport, "the fire burned so hot that the entire landscape was destroyed, so the impacts on the park environment, the ecosystem that makes the parks beautiful, are significant." The park will remain closed until 2026 to allow the landscape to have time to recover.
