Quarry Lake - Picnics & Swimming

This is a lifeguard-free area - swim at your own risk.

Reclaimed from an old mining area, Quarry Lake is one of Canmore’s favourite outdoor recreational areas. The lake is over 100 metres deep in some areas and fed by an underground mountain spring making it suitable for swimming only in July and August.

The lake is surrounded by an open park area that is perfect for a picnic or soaking up the rays. Please note that there are no cookstoves or firepits. Toilets are available on-site.
