South Winnipeg is home to a number of surprising things the whole family can do. From beautiful parks to scenic lookouts and provincial heritage sites, we've got you covered!
1. King's Park
Hugging the Red River, this incredible urban park boasts 37.4 hectares of year round natural beauty, with 2.6 kilometres of pathways ideal for walking or biking. There's also a Chinese Pagoda, waterfall and even a labyrinth you can walk around.
2. Trappist Monastery Provincial Heritage Park
It was Father Joseph-Noel Ritchot’s vision to set up a Monastery along the LaSalle River and along with five Cistercian monks who arrived in 1892, they created a thriving agricultural operation. Check out the incredible ruins for free along with interpretive signage, the La Salle river, a Pagoda and Buddharupa!
3. St. Norbert Provincial Heritage Park
This free heritage park is sometimes referred to as the 'other forks', 'original forks', or 'mini forks' as it's the confluence of the Red & La Salle Rivers. Take a walk around the small park and immerse yourself in Métis family life as it was during the late 1800s!
4. Place St. Norbert
Take a stroll in this small piece of Manitoban heritage and find yourself amongst an old village, with a local house, a meat shop, and the world-famous Red River Cart. This is where the stand off between Louis Reil, the Metis people & their followers versus the government of Canada took place. Oh, and it's right beside the Farmer's Market...
5. LaBarriere Park
LaBarriere is a river bottom forest eco system that is under protection and preservation. If you venture onto one of the walking paths, you'll come to a bridge over the LaSalle River before entering the forest for a beautiful walk amongst nature. LaBarriere Park is city owned land located in the Regional Municipality of Ritchot. Built in 1969 as a pledge to add more green space, it's 136 Hectares of beautiful prairie green space just waiting to be enjoyed!

I read the post about five fun things to do in South Winnipeg and it sounds like a great mix of parks, nature walks, and history with places like Trappist Monastery Provincial Heritage Park and LaBarriere Park to explore together with family. I remember once when school got really tough and I needed exam help service because I just could not keep up on my own, so I get how much support matters. This made me think how exploring new places or finding the right help both make life more enjoyable and less stressful.

Having just explored the bridge over the LaSalle River at LaBarriere Park, the space here is incredibly vast and refreshing. Sitting amidst this 136-hectare green space while focusing on navigating the challenging zigzag sections in drift boss is simply unparalleled. This park has a history dating back to 1969 and remains my favorite stop whenever I need a quiet space to play games.
