Campgrounds, Parks & Trails

Our system of paved and natural trails links the entire town with a 20 km trail network, which provides recreational trails for walking, jogging, bicycling, in-line skating, and cross country skiing.

The Napoleon Lake Trail is an unpaved trail that runs 1.6km from the entrance to the exit (around the lake). From the exit, if you travel around the park and back to the entrance, the full distance is 2.5 km.

Dodds Lake – Supports active use, such as swimming and water skiing
Napoleon Lake – Passive use only, to protect the natural elements
