About Whonnock Lake Park

To properly enjoy Whonnock Lake, plan on taking the entire family and spend the day there. Depending on the time of year, you should bring lawn chairs, beach blankets, towels, Frisbees, a volleyball, other leisure time toys, a good book, a swim suit, and a good quality sunscreen.

Local kids say Whonnock Lake boasts the world's largest tadpoles. They can be found in the shallow water around the shores of the lake. Besides an ample playground, there is an excellent small beach. There is also a gazebo that can be reserved and used for barbecues or serves as an emergency shelter if it rains.

A playground was completed in March 2025, including a new play structure and sand play area. Find out more by visiting the project page.

Picnic Shelter

To reserve the picnic shelter please visit MapleRidge.ca/BookPicnic or call Facilities Bookings at 604-467-7422.
