If you visit in summer with kids, the Mundare Splash Park is the right place for you and your kids to enjoy a good time, running and playing with water to cool down on a sunny hot afternoon in the spray park, scoot around in the skateboard park, play a game on our new pickleball courts, or bring the kids to the Mundare Public Library located inside the civic complex to explore the world through some fun reading!

Mundare has excellent other activities as well. You could have fun at the hockey arena, curling rink, numerous ball diamonds, playgrounds, bowling alley (town administration building), and 18-hole Whitetail Crossing Golf Course.
