Fort Kent
Fort Kent
Nestled in the heart of central Alberta, Fort Kent is a tranquil hamlet situated within the Municipal District of Bonnyville No. 87. Positioned along Highway 28, it lies approximately 32 kilometres southwest of Cold Lake, offering a peaceful retreat amidst scenic landscapes.
However, amid the tranquility, there's a cautionary tale passed down through generations: beware the legend of the Wendigo. In Algonquin lore, this mythical creature embodies an evil spirit that preys on those consumed by grief and despair, driving them to unspeakable acts. Legend has it that the Wendigo lurks in the shadows around Fort Kent, its chilling presence haunting the land for nearly a century. While the tale may seem fantastical, locals heed the warning to stay vigilant and steer clear of the creature's path, lest they fall victim to its malevolent influence.
