An irrigation reservoir built in 1929 provides the setting for Alberta’s first Provincial Park! Established in 1932 due to popular demand for the local beach and water sport opportunities, Park Lake is still a well-known gathering place for locals who are seeking a nearby getaway and pleasant oasis for visitors traveling through. The lake provides water for thousands of acres of farmland in southern Alberta, and along with surrounding wetlands and prairie, provide a refuge for many migrating birds, habitat for breeding birds and other wildlife. Significant plant species, such as the western blue flag and other prairie plants are also found in the park.
17 km northwest of Lethbridge on Hwy. 25 and 5 km north & west on Hwy. 101
