The Burnaby Lake neighbourhood runs along the southern shore of Burnaby Lake, between Highway 1 and Canada Way, from Kensington Avenue to Edmonds Street. Most homes in the neighbourhood are custom-built 2-storey detached houses with fabulous views as they rise from the Central Valley.
Neighbourhood Amenities
Burnaby Lake Park is nearby and is a natural habitat for many species of birds, including eagles and herons. It’s also the recreational heart of the city.
The lake is encircled by a network of walking trails that hug the shoreline and meander through forests and over creeks and bogs. A boathouse built for the first Canada Games is now a recreational and competitive rowers and paddlers training centre. The park’s west end has many sporting activities, from tennis and swimming to lacrosse, hockey, softball, rugby, soccer, cricket and even Aussie Rules Football. Across Kensington Avenue, the newer west annex of Burnaby Lake Park boasts six turf fields, a clubhouse and the renowned Fortius Sport & Health Centre, where high-performance athletes from around the world train and rehabilitate. Next to it, the Canlan Ice Sports 8 Rinks is one of the world’s largest skating and hockey centres.
The Burnaby Lake neighbourhood is bordered at one end by the Edmonds business district, which has numerous small shops and restaurants. It’s also convenient to the city’s Metrotown shopping area.
