Poplar Lake

Poplar Lake

Poplar Lake, also known as Klarvatten Wetland, is a productive and diverse area west of 82 Street and north of 173 Avenue that supports over 20 species of songbirds, waterfowl and shorebirds. Be sure to take your binoculars!

The presence of open water, cattails and native grasses make the site an excellent location for waterfowl to nest, feed and raise their young. Many birds also make a stop to rest and feed during their long journey between winter and summer breeding grounds. A fringe of willow and aspen trees also provide a lush and protected area for wildlife.

The open water of this wetland is fenced and access to the water’s edge is not allowed in order to safely preserve the area for wildlife. However, two viewing platforms are located along the western edge, which include seating, bike racks and interpretive signage. A pedestrian/cycling path passes by the wetland and connects with neighbourhood sidewalks. Parking is available along the eastern edge of 82 Street.
