Manitoba Adventures for the Family

Manitoba loves kids, and it offers up activities by the handful for the younger members of your family. Take them out on the Churchill Expedition, where they’ll get to see the Polar Bear Capital of the world and view whales, rare birds, and seals. If you’re looking for warmer outdoor adventures, head to the marshes and out for a canoe ride in Oak Hammock Marsh, where the family can spot ducks and learn the basics of managing a craft on the water.

Learning about the heritage of Manitoba can be a fascinating, exciting, and educational adventure for your kids – though we recommend you leave that last bit out. Nothing spoils an adventure like emphasizing it’s educational.  After learning about Aboriginal culture, taking a hike to go bear watching, hearing stories from First Nations tribes, or getting the lowdown on how the bison herds came to be, they’ll have had the time of their lives.

For warm-weather fun, hit Grand Beach, take the family to Spirit Sands in Spruce National Park to slide down the dunes, or hike the Pine Point Trail in Whiteshell for a great family picnic outing. By the time you’re done in Manitoba, your family will never want to leave.
