Manitoba offers free access to provincial parks July 11-17

Looking to get outside this summer?

Manitobans are again being encouraged to check out their own backyard with free access to provincial parks from July 11-17.

The province said vehicle permits and entry fees won’t be required during that period, which includes Canada’s Parks Day on July 16, although fees will still apply at national parks.

Because flood conditions continue to affect a number of parks in Manitoba, visitors are encouraged to check for closures before heading out.
