Ghost Tours at Lower Fort Garry

History and haunting go hand in hand at Lower Fort Garry, where October brings evening ghost walks through the stone walls of the old fur trade post. Guided tours share the stories of eerie encounters, whispered legends, and the darker chapters of the fort’s past. The walk takes about 90 minutes and leads through uneven ground and dim spaces so it’s best for older kids and adults who don’t mind a chill or two. Bundle up, because the prairie nights in October can be just as sharp as the stories you’ll hear.
