The Red River flows north from the United States into Manitoba, winding through Winnipeg before emptying into Lake Winnipeg. Its slow, meandering course has long shaped the region’s landscape and history, serving as a vital route for Indigenous peoples, fur traders, and early settlers. Today, its banks are lined with parks, trails, and neighbourhoods that celebrate the river’s enduring role in the heart of the prairie city.

Bunn’s Creek Centennial Park covers over 25 hectares of beautifully landscaped green space with flower gardens, a small playground, picnic sites, and access to the picturesque Bunn’s Creek Trail that runs west through the creek valley. Its riverside setting and quiet natural atmosphere make it a lovely spot for family outings and short walks along the water.

Bunn’s Creek Trail is a fantastic multi-use mixed gravel and paved pathway that follows the course of Bunn’s Creek through a lush, tree-lined corridor. The route passes through wetlands, forest groves, and open park spaces, with plenty of spots for birdwatching and taking in the peaceful scenery. In spring, the creek runs swiftly toward the Red River, adding a refreshing backdrop to this popular community trail.

Birds Hill Provincial Park spans nearly 3,400 hectares, and is a sprawling landscape of mixed prairie, forest, and lakeside scenery. The park features an extensive network of trails for hiking, cycling, and horseback riding, as well as a popular sandy beach on Birds Hill Lake. Known for hosting the annual Winnipeg Folk Festival, it offers a fantastic mix of recreation, wildlife viewing, and community events throughout the year.

Griffith Hill rises from ancient glacial ridges to form one of the highest points in Birds Hill Provincial Park. The slope is gentle and forested, with sandy soil and scattered wildflowers in spring. It’s a quiet summit with no dramatic views, just a peaceful high point tucked into the park’s trail network.

The Chickadee Trail is a well-marked 4 kilometre loop through mixed forest and prairie, popular with birders and families. The path winds beneath trembling aspen, burr oak, and fir trees, with a short stretch of open grassland and plenty of shade. It’s an easy walk with gentle terrain, and especially lively in spring and fall when chickadees and other songbirds are active.

The Aspen Trail leads through beautiful aspen forests, past small ponds that are often visited by waterfowl. If you're lucky, you can spot deer in the open meadows. The dense treetops of the forest also offer pleasant shade and peace in the hot summer months.

The park is open year-round and is particularly impressive in autumn when the foliage is ablaze with colour. Make sure you bring plenty of water as there are no food options in the forest.
