West Hawk Lake

Tucked into the Canadian Shield within Manitoba’s Whiteshell Provincial Park, West Hawk Lake is a place whose character is shaped by a meteorite impact crater. The lake reaches 115 metres at its deepest point, making it Manitoba’s deepest, and its steep, rock-lined basin is surrounded by boreal forest. The Trans-Canada Highway runs past the lake, linking this recreation stop with Winnipeg and northwestern Ontario. Its clear water and depth make boating, swimming and scuba diving central to summer here. Established in 1961, Whiteshell Provincial Park protects lakes, forest and exposed Precambrian rock.
