Alexander Stewart Provincial Park is a nature reserve in McNab/Braeside, Renfrew County, Ontario, Canada, about 11 kilometres (7 mi) west of the centre of Arnprior.[2] This nature reserve contains a hardwood forest of several species including Maple, American Beech, Basswood, Blue-Beech, and Bur Oak. The subsurface is clay silt, a remnant of the ice age Champlain Sea.[1] The site is at an elevation of 130 metres (430 ft).

The park, located at the northwest intersection of Maple Bend Road and Russett Drive, is a non-operating park, meaning there are no facilities or services.[1]
