Parks & Trails

Water Park

The Water Park is currently closed for the season, see you next summer!!

The Spray Park is opening seasonally, weather permitting, usually from late May to September, from 10:00 am – 8:00 pm, 7 days a week.

The District of Chetwynd completed the construction of a spray park in the summer of 2022, with support from community donations and a $30,000 Community Places grant from NDIT. The outdoor water park is located behind the Chetwynd Recreation Centre at 4552 North Access Road and serves as a great addition to the facility.

Water parks provide a barrier free, outdoor recreation option for families during summer months at no cost and support healthy, active lifestyles for residents. The addition of a spray park was identified as a priority for the community during a 2016 public engagement exercise for the recreation centre.
