Discover Rowing at Burnaby Lake!
Rowing at Burnaby Lake is a great way to get a full-body workout while enjoying the outdoors! Located in the heart of Burnaby, British Columbia, on the traditional and unceded territories of the xʷməθkʷəy̓əm (Musqueam), Sḵwx̱wú7mesh Úxwumixw (Squamish), and səl̓ilw̓ətaʔɬ (Tsleil-Waututh) peoples, Burnaby Lake offers two kilometres of protected inland water, creating a beautiful and accessible setting in which to learn, practice, and enjoy the sport of rowing.
When you take rowing lessons at Burnaby Lake Rowing Club you don' t need to worry about having your own boat or oars, as you can use clubhouse equipment.
Why Rowing?
Whether you’re looking for a new sport, to improve your fitness, to spend more time outside, or to connect with a community, rowing offers a unique combination of exercise, recreation, and outdoor adventure.
Rowing is a full-body, low-impact water sport that works your legs, core, back, and upper body. With every stroke, you use both sides of your body, both hands, and both legs. You can choose your own pace and intensity, making rowing accessible whether you’re looking for a relaxed recreational sport, or a competitive outlet.
