Situated in Bow Valley Provincial Park, Barrier Lake is a pretty man-made lake created by a hydroelectric dam on its north side. On its eastern shore, Highway 40 runs between the lake and Mount Baldy, making Barrier Lake easy to access. In the lake area, you’ll find parks, day-use areas, hiking trails, and a boat launch. In the summer months, the lake is a destination for canoeing, kayaking, and stand-up paddleboarding.
