3 Best Hiking Trails in Winnipeg, MB

Great attraction located on the far westside of Winnipeg. Lots to do for both adults and children. Abundance of trails and even several boardwalks over that span over the water. Numerous events and additional activities that change regularly. There is an admission fee but its relatively small for the amount of activities you can do. The bison pen is usually very active making for great photo opportunities. The interpretive centre has lots of small activities for children including animal displays, live fish/marine life, live reptiles, etc. Boardwalk near the marsh has an abundance of wildlife. Reception centre has a nice cafe and gift shop that features local makers. Highly recommend.

Visited here in the winter to try out snowshoeing. We rented from them and also brought our own snowshoes. It was fun going on their trails and on the frozen-over ponds and lakes. We even encountered a couple of deer in their forest trail. After snowshoeing we spent time on theit toboggan run. They have large toboggans on-site and these are free to use once you are already in the park. Of course, it's always nice seeing the bison enclosure. They also have a shop, cafe and a small museum.

Excellent place to experience trail walking and biking. Bison viewing so close to the city is awesome. The animals and arts in the museum are so lively. The flooding boardwalk trail is so nice.

My husband and I frequent this amazing trail often, and park at the pedestrian bridge at John Bruce Road where the newly accessible dock is located. From where we begin at the launch, we travel 8 km round trip. We love that we are able to see so much wildlife within the forest that occupies this beautiful part of our city. The trail was dry even after the rain the day before, and it is a cool place to experience and connect with nature at any time of the year.

Great place for walking, with a few different trail options. There are almost always white tailed deer visible at some place in the park. Also, you can expect to see and hear many species of waterfowl and songbirds among the mixed vegetation. Look for turtles on rocks or fallen logs in the river. The only downside of the trail is that it isn’t super easy to find the trail entry points. Seems like a semi private place for the locals. Best parking at no frills and then can walk either north or south routes.

Lovely trail along the river. The North section is right down by the river with good tree cover and a few carvings to discover. Further south it opens up to some wider areas, meadows, and passes behind a school and some condos.
