11 days in Winnipeg Itinerary

At the confluence of two rivers, Winnipeg started out as a small trading post in an area inhabited by indigenous tribes for thousands of years before the European arrival.

You'll find plenty of places to visit near Winnipeg: Granite Hills Golf Club (in Lac du Bonnet) and Brokenhead Wetland Interpretive Trail (in Scanterbury). There's much more to do: contemplate the long history of The Forks National Historic Site, ponder the world of politics at Manitoba Legislative Building, get to know the resident critters at Assiniboine Park Zoo, and admire the masterpieces at Winnipeg Art Gallery.
