In addition, the municipality maintains Willow Park Cemetery in the hamlet of Lac La Biche.


Boat Launches

Water-based recreation options are one of the County's most enticing features. There are 13 municipal boat launches, giving boaters access to five of the largest and most accessible water bodies. Public launches exist on Lac La Biche Lake, Beaver Lake, Elinor Lake, Fork Lake and Square Lake.

Notable Parks

McArthur Park and Paul Richard Memorial Spray Park 

McArthur Park is located in a beautiful lakefront setting in the hamlet of Lac La Biche. The park includes a public beach, and a swim platform with a slide is installed in the summer months. The area is home to the Paul Richard Memorial Spray Park, which is open from late May to early September and is free for the public to access. An adult exercise park and three baseball diamonds maintained by the County are just steps away as well.

The entrance to Alexander Hamilton Park is on Lakeland Drive, at the eastern edge of the hamlet of Lac La Biche. The park contains a picnic shelter, the County's Community Garden, and a pond stocked with trout for fishing. In the winter a ice skating surface is offered.

Alexander Hamilton Park has also been designated as an off-leash area for dogs, so residents and their four-legged companions can all benefit. Dog owners are required to keep control of their pets at all times.
