I highly recommend visiting Pitt Lake when you need some quiet time. It is quieter if you go to see the lake on a rainy day or on a weekday. When the weather is sunny and cool, I feel that the lake is something beyond the truth. Pitt Lake is also one of the best places to go kayaking and camping. Note: as of May 31, 2022, there are no public washrooms available at the lake.

Pitt Lake is a hidden gem located just 30 minutes away from Coquitlam, British Columbia. Despite its close proximity to the city, Pitt Lake offers a peaceful and tranquil environment that will make you feel a world away from the hustle and bustle of daily life. The lake is perfect for a leisurely walk or hike and a fantastic place to indulge in water activities. During summer, it becomes a hub for kayaking, boating, and paddleboarding enthusiasts. Kayaking around this beautiful and serene lake is an experience not to be missed. The beauty of the calm and crystal-clear waters is an invitation to take a break while basking in nature's serenity. Apart from the water activities, there are many hiking trails around the lake that offer amazing views of the surrounding mountains and forest. You can even pause for a while and admire the local wildlife, including deer, elk and a variety of birds. The area is also conveniently equipped with a range of amenities such as bathrooms and camping sites. Overall, Pitt Lake is a fantastic place for everyone who loves the great outdoors. Whether it's a walk, water activity or camping, Pitt Lake provides the perfect setting for you to connect with nature and unwind. We're already looking forward to returning during the summer to make the most of the water activities!

日本から観光にきて、近場のハイキングスポットとして連れて行ってもらいました。 360度雄大な自然に囲まれて素敵な場所でした。車でないと多分いけないと思うのですが、オススメです。

A must visit place. Beautiful scenery and good trail around the marsh and on the dikes. A good place to take your kayak or boats as well.

Just over an hour drive from Vancouver. Drive also amazing. You are passing Pitt river, perfect for kayaking, canoeing, fishing and swim. Also, we passed so many farms, looks such local and beautiful mountains around you. Lake itself amazing, also so much wildlife and trails. Highly recommended!!

Great views. Canoing was fun, and each canoe needs one person who are experienced to lead or they won’t let you rent the canoes. I totally understand why they have this policy because they just want people to have fun and play safely.

Always a fantastic paddle here on our paddleboards. It was sunny but cool. We saw a bear and a buck at Widgeon campground and hiked up to the falls. Incredible!

Beautiful location! Where the water hits mountains. Flat easy to follow trail system, many different types of birds and viewing areas. Pitt Lake is a clean, large lake.
