Fall & Winter

Heat things up this season with these cold weather activities.

COVID Update

Due to the spread of COVID-19, many businesses throughout the province are temporarily closing their doors.

Before venturing out please call ahead to your destination of choice to confirm that they are operating during this current phase of the pandemic.

As summer slips into fall, the leaves turn golden yellow and bright orange. With cool nights and fewer people around, fall is a great time for day trips or multi-day outdoor adventures, like hiking, horseback riding and fishing.

And when the temperatures drop below zero, Manitoba shines under the bright winter sun. Cold temperatures, snow and frozen lakes make Manitoba an ideal spot for snowmobiling, skiing and ice fishing. Dress for the weather (average winter temperatures are -12°C), but be ready for fun.

We know winter and do it well, especially when it comes to ice fishing on our many frozen lakes. If there’s one thing our cold winters lend themselves to, it’s longer, abundant ice fishing seasons – even more so the further north you venture in Manitoba.
