Lions Centennial Park

The Lions Centennial Park (4952 – 50 Street) was developed out of a shared vision of the Camrose Historic Main Street Society, the Camrose Swans and Roses Lions Club, and the City of Camrose to provide a passive and inviting space downtown for people to come together. The park includes a mural dedicated to the historical development of Camrose, ample seating, seasonal plantings, and a stage with electrical power available for events.

Mirror Lake Park

Camrose takes pride in our exceptional surroundings and extensive natural outdoor spaces and trails right in the center of the city. An early objective of the Camrose Urban Parks Committee was to ensure that the urban park development would provide a year-round facility. The Bill Fowler Visitor Information Centre was built in the heart of the park, adjacent to Mirror Lake which was already the site of numerous summer and winter activities. The area contains a children’s playground surrounded by several picnic tables, washroom facilities, a seasonal ice cream shack and food stands, and is the starting point of the paved walking trail (3 km) around the lake. The park is always full of people of all ages busy enjoying themselves in all kinds of weather. Distance of the Mirror Lake Loop 3 km; Walking time 32 minutes.

Mirror Lake is cleared and flooded for outdoor skating, and several community skating rinks are developed for the winter.

Mirror Lake is also the starting point to the 100th Anniversary Legacy Story Markers located throughout the Camrose Trails. Please see map link for details. Educational and Historical Journey -http://arcg.is/1PxaenT
