Lower Kananaskis Lake is a natural lake that was turned into a reservoir in Kananaskis Country in Alberta, Canada.

The lake is part of a series of natural and man made reservoirs in the Kananaskis and Bow Valleys used for hydro electric power, flood control, and water reserves for the Bow River water users such as the city of Calgary.

Canyon Campground does not have camping spots backing on to the lake, but a lakeside picnic area is available.

A network of bicycle trails connects the campgrounds and picnic areas.

Most of the year, these are open to the public, but they are closed sometimes due to bears presence in the area.
