About Lakefield
The town
Lakefield is a village on the Otonabee River at the south end of Katchewanooka Lake. It merged into what is now the Township of Selwyn in 2001; the township had 18,653 people in 2021, and the Lakefield population centre 2,943. Lock 26 of the Trent-Severn Waterway, on Hill Street, was built between 1895 and 1900 and lifts boats about 4.8 m. The writers Catharine Parr Traill, Susanna Moodie and Margaret Laurence are linked to the village. Town water is drawn from the river, with source protection rules in the intake zone. Selwyn's Building and Planning Department issues building permits and answers zoning questions; Peterborough County's Land Division office handles severances. The regional hospital, with an emergency department, is Peterborough Regional Health Centre.
Around it
The 8.5 km Lakefield Trail follows the river and lakeshore to Lock 26 and joins the Trans Canada Trail by way of the Peterborough County Rotary Trail. Imagine the Marsh Conservation Area, on Katchewanooka Lake, protects a provincially significant wetland and has a viewing tower. Lakefield Campground on Hague Boulevard has 220 sites and a canoe and kayak launch on the river. Highway 28 runs through the township; County Road 6, leaving it north of the village, leads to Petroglyphs Provincial Park, a 1,643 ha day-use park protecting Canada's largest known group of Indigenous rock carvings. Work near water or wetlands needs a permit from Otonabee Conservation.
