Sylvan Lake Park is a busy urban lakeside park in the Town of Sylvan Lake on the southern shore of Sylvan Lake in central Alberta. Long one of the lake’s main public recreation areas, it has shifted repeatedly between municipal and provincial control. It was first designated a provincial park in 1932, transferred to the town in the 1960s, restored to provincial status on January 16, 1980 as Sylvan Lake Provincial Park, and returned to town ownership on January 17, 2018. Before that 2018 handover, the park covered 67 hectares, or 170 acres, and in peak summer it drew very large crowds.
