Notikewin is a hamlet in northern Alberta, Canada within the County of Northern Lights. It is located along the Mackenzie Highway (Highway 35), approximately north of the Town of Manning.
The name derives from nôtinikewin, the Cree word for "battle".[2] [3] The name is shared with the Notikewin River, and is lent to the Notikewin Member, a stratigraphical unit of the Western Canadian Sedimentary Basin.
Notikewin recorded a population of 17 in the 1991 Census of Population conducted by Statistics Canada.[1]
