Manitoba

Manitoba, the heart of Canada, is a province where prairie plains meet rugged northern wilderness. Its deep history is tied to the fur trade between the Indigenous, British and Métis cultures, with Winnipeg’s Forks National Historic Site marking centuries of trade and gathering.

For nature lovers, Riding Mountain National Park offers forests, lakes, and wildlife, while Wapusk National Park is one of the best places in the world to see polar bears. Churchill, known as the “Polar Bear Capital of the World,” also draws visitors for its beluga whales and dazzling northern lights.

Winnipeg is home to the Canadian Museum for Human Rights and has a thriving arts scene, while small prairie towns showcase warm hospitality and heritage festivals that celebrate Ukrainian, Icelandic, Indigenous traditions and more!
