Main Navigation
Assiniboine River
Beginning at the public boat launch in Headingley or at the West Perimeter Highway, we paddle from the suburbs to the heart of Winnipeg, carried along by a brisk current. Leave the noisy traffic behind for a relaxing paddle downtown through the corridor of cottonwood, elm, ash and oak trees.
After a short detour onto Sturgeon Creek for lunch, we may stop at Assiniboine Park for coffee or ice-cream, as the weather dictates. From here on, we travel well out from shore to avoid the shoals, fallen trees and fishing lines. As you admire the homes and gardens on Wellington and Wolseley, you will notice that not all the residents here are human. Canada Geese and white-tailed deer appear to be right at home in these backyards. The keen eye may also observe a beaver, blue heron, or eagle. As we approach the Forks, you will gain a unique perspective on the Manitoba Legislature, the Esplanade Louis Riel, the Museum of Human Rights, and other Winnipeg landmarks.
TRIP DETAILS :
$65 for adults (18 years + )
$52 for students
$52 for seniors (65 years + )
