A four-season destination, Winnipeg offers everything for outdoor lovers from ice trails to summer strolls and so much more.
Established in 1909, Assiniboine Park (known then as simply City Park) is an 1,100-acre outdoor escape in the Assiniboine Forest and on the Assiniboine River. Park visitors enjoy walks, picnics, and strolls through Assiniboine Park Zoo and the Assiniboine Park Conservatory.
Anyone who’s heard of Manitoba has heard of The Forks. A historic (as in, a National Historic Site of Canada) six-hectare green space found downtown, The Forks offers an array of outdoor activity.
Outdoor features include the Broadway Promenade, The Forks Market Plaza, the Assiniboine Riverwalk, and the Arctic Glacier Winter Park. Everything from playgrounds to gardens, a historic port, and a skatepark – all at The Forks.
Other outdoor activities in The Peg include tours of the Forts Rouge, Garry & Gibraltar National Historic Site of Canada, and the Leo Mol Sculpture Garden. You can also take a walk through Winnipeg across the Red River along the iconic Esplanade Riel – neighbouring the Provencher Bridge.
