Due to the huge success of last year’s initiative, the Manitoba government is once again offering free entry to provincial parks for a full week in mid-July!
“This week-long free access, which coincides with Canada’s Parks Day on Saturday, July 16, is designed to ensure all Manitobans can enjoy the extraordinary natural beauty of our provincial parks even more affordably,” said Environment, Climate and Parks Minister Jeff Wharton. “From hiking and birdwatching in lush boreal forests to exploring intriguing historic sites that showcase our province’s cultural heritage to paddling a pristine, tranquil lake, Manitoba’s provincial parks have something for everyone.”
Vehicle permits are not required to visit provincial parks from July 11 – 17, 2022. However, regular fees still apply for provincial campgrounds.
Several parks are offering special events on Saturday, July 16, for Canada’s Parks Day including family fun activities, barbeques and prize draws. Event details are available at local campground offices and online at www.manitobaparks.com.
