BARRIER LAKE
At only one hour away from downtown Calgary, and only 10 minutes off the Trans Canada highway, Barrier Lake is a super convenient option with very easy access to parking, bathrooms, and of course the water. This is a large body of water, with many viewpoints and areas to explore!

UPPER KANANASKIS LAKE
Being just up the road from Lower Kananaskis Lake, this is another large body of water that is surrounded by mountain vistas, hiking trails, and amazing tree lines. There’s even an island we can explore, because it’s only accessible by water! Truly the best bang for your buck when it comes to landscapes.

LOWER KANANASKIS LAKE
Lower Kananaskis Lake offers beautiful views and lovely shorelines to paddle along side. This paddle is only about 20 minutes closer to Cochrane than Upper Kananaskis Lake, however it offers very different landscape views while being just below the Upper Lake. It’s quite a large body of water, yet we paddle and explore the North end, staying sheltered for much of the paddle.
