Hecla - Grindstone | Treaty 2
Manitoba’s Interlake region gets its name because it’s located between the province’s two biggest lakes -- Lake Winnipeg and Lake Manitoba. So it’s no surprise that the lakes loom large in this region. Beaches along the shores of both lakes are family favourites, while boats are swapped for ice fishing shacks in the winter. Birders flock to important habitats, including the marshes that filter the water going in and out of the lakes.
Visit the Interlake Tourism Association for more information on local activities and events.
Many communities here celebrate their Viking roots, including Gimli -- the heart of New Iceland. Other communities in the region showcase Indigenous, Scottish and Ukrainian heritage. At Lower Fort Garry National Historic Site, these different stories come together to bring to life a part of Canada’s history.
This area of the province is on Treaty 1, 2 and 5 territory >>
