Lac du Bonnet and the surrounding area truly is a Four Seasons Playground and has a variety of recreational activities to enjoy year-round, whether you’re a long-time resident or seasonal visitor.
The gateway to cottage country, Lac du Bonnet is a superb summertime spot with more than 60 kilometres of rivers and lakes and many trails. Come to swim, fish, boat, waterski, hike, bike, golf, or simply sunbathe on the serene shores or at the Lac du Bonnet Town Dock and Beach.
In fall and winter, you can come to bowl or curl or lace them up for a game of shinny or skating at the Lac du Bonnet Arena. You can also bundle up and hit the wilderness for cross-country skiing, snowmobiling and ice fishing (and come back into town for a hot drink when you’re done.)
