Description

Henderson Lake Park is a 47 hectare (117 acre) blend of relaxed leisure
and active recreation opportunities concentrated around a 60 acre
man-made lake. Paved and shale walking trails border Henderson
Lake, along with playgrounds, rest areas and picnic sites.
Concession is open during the summer months.

Henderson Park has been a focus of civic pride for more than 85
years. Originally developed for the 7th International Dry-Farming
Congress in 1912, it continues to be an attraction for special event
celebrations. The lake itself was originally a large slough. William
Henderson, the Mayor of Lethbridge during the early preparations
for the Farming Congress, was instrumental in initiating the
concept of Henderson Lake and a surrounding park.
It is home to the annual Dragon Boat Festival in july as well as Canada Day celebrations.
