About Burnaby Canoe & Kayak Club (BCKC)

Take the biggest lake in the center of the Lower Mainland. Add sweeping views of the North Shore Mountains, a bird watching area right next door and a 10 kilometer walking/run trail around the lake. Finish it off with a pinch of beavers and a touch of herons and eagles. This is the setting against which we offer paddling programs for all ages and all levels.

BCKC is a non-profit organization that services our community with flatwater canoe and kayak opportunities, in a safe and positive environment lead by nationally certified coaches. We are supported by a committed group of members who volunteer their time and energy to share our passion for paddling. BCKC is a member of the provincial sport organization Canoe Kayak BC and the national sport organization Canoe Kayak Canada.

The Burnaby Canoe and Kayak Club is located at the west end of Burnaby Lake and offers programs for people age 8 and older:

• Youth Sprint racing programs designed for beginners, intermediates and advanced paddlers.
• Adult kayak racers looking to improve their paddling technique
• Adult war canoe
• School dragon boating (grades 4-12)

Don’t think you have to be a racer to benefit from membership to Burnaby Canoe & Kayak Club; we have a variety of canoes and kayaks to allow our members to enjoy paddling on Burnaby Lake and Still Creek.
