Lake Sumner, Hokakura in Māori language, is a lake situated 100 km northwest of Christchurch, Canterbury. The lake is located in the Lake Sumner Forest Park; the Hurunui river and several other lakes (Loch Katrine, Lake Sheppard, Lake Taylor and Lake Mason) also lie within the park.

The Lake Sumner region is a popular area for hunting, tramping, trout fishing, whitewater kayaking, and mountainbiking. Several D.O.C. tramping huts in the region make it a common destination for overnight trips- however the area's comparatively remote location and difficult vehicle access mean it is seldom crowded.
