If you’re wondering what to do over the holidays or are looking for something to do in the New Year, Parks Canada recommends checking out Riding Mountain National Park.
Parks Canada thinks very highly of RMNP, saying the park is a gateway to nature and represents the very best that Canada has to offer Canadians.
During the winter months, RMNP has lots to offer visitors, such as winter accommodations, cross-country skiing on groomed trails, Fat Bike winter biking, snowshoeing, skating, ice fishing and tobogganing.
The winter accommodation includes winterized oTENTiks in the Wasagaming Campground.
The oTENTiks include a wood stove with electrical heat, electrical and USB outlets, a BBQ, and insulated cook shack.
New this winter, is the possibility to reserve overnight stays in the two winterized oTENTiks at the Moon Lake campground.
Over the holidays, you can also join a Parks Canada interpreter for a guided experience. Snowshoe under the starry skies, get in on the secrets behind what makes Species at Risk so special, or enjoy a walk through the forest and learn about how trees communicate.
In early February from the 7th to 9th, Clear Lake Country and Parks Canada are hosting the annual Winter Adventure Weekend. Included in the packed weekend of winter adventures are skiing, snowshoeing, and fat biking.
More info is to come as the date gets closer.
