Maple Ridge, Drive south on 272nd Street from Dewdney Trunk Road, turn east on 112th Avenue and follow the signs.
Whonnock Lake is a typical bog lake of the coastal forest region. It is home to native plants and thriving colonies of beavers and muskrats, as well as to breeding populations of loons, mallard ducks, and numerous small birds. The lake is stocked annually with rainbow trout, and supports a substantial recreational fishery. This popular year-round playground offers canoeing, swimming, hiking and nature study. Park facilities include a barbecue pit, concession stand, picnic tables, a playground, washrooms, canoe rentals, drinking water and a sandy beach.
