Lodgepole Playground Information

The Lodgepole Playground was identified as the City's Repair, Maintain, Replace (RMR) playground lifecycle capital project for 2023. As the project progressed, an area resident identified a need for an inclusive and accessible design focus and partnered with a local charity, Variety - Children's Charity of Alberta to raise funds and work with the City to enhance Lodgepole playground. In partnership with Variety and the area resident, the City is leading the design of Lodgepole playground to be focused on inclusion and accessibility for all including individuals of all ages and abilities, and their caregivers.

Lacombe Lake Park – Lodgepole Playground was built in 2003 and includes a swing set, a single slide, and a small play structure with sand play surfacing. Lodgepole Playground is found along the trail network that makes up Lacombe Lake Park.
