Silent Lake Provincial Park is a park located on Silent Lake in eastern Ontario near Bancroft, Ontario. It occupies an area of 14.50 km². Silent Lake is located in the Canadian Shield. Recreational activities include swimming, hiking, cycling and canoeing; in winter, there is cross-country skiing. Yurt camping is available within this park. [1]

Prior to the park's founding, American sportsmen fished and hunted on this private lake for 40 years. Silent Lake possesses a rocky shoreline, mixed forest, and marshes. Birds and wildlife live within this park. A rugged trail circles the lake, and parts of groomed ski trails have been graded for mountain biking.
