Atim Creek is a stream in central Alberta, located near St. Albert and Spruce Grove, roughly four miles west of Edmonton. It flows through the northeast corner of Parkland County before connecting to Big Lake and the Sturgeon River system. The creek's coordinates are approximately 53°36′N 113°46′W.

The most documented paddling use of Atim Creek involves informal access at the west end of Big Lake, where the creek provides a route onto the lake for canoe and kayak users. This access is described as limited and subject to seasonally changing water levels and ground conditions, meaning it is not consistently suitable for reaching the lake from this point. Paddlers considering this approach should account for variable conditions depending on the time of year.

Along its banks near Spruce Grove, the creek borders a 126-acre conservation site managed in partnership by the Alberta Conservation Association, Ducks Unlimited Canada, and the Government of Alberta. This area consists primarily of grasslands with a wooded section along the creek corridor. Wildlife in the vicinity includes white-tailed deer and upland birds. The creek also supports Northern pike, Yellow perch, and Walleye, making it a destination for anglers who access it at multiple points outside St. Albert and Spruce Grove, including bridge crossings.

The conservation site adjacent to the creek near Spruce Grove is designated for day use only, with no open fires permitted and foot access only — conditions that would limit any shore-based activities for paddlers stopping in that area.
