Manigotagan River

Manigotagan River Provincial Park protects a significant section of the Manigotagan River as it flows through the boreal forest landscape of eastern Manitoba toward Lake Winnipeg.

The river and surrounding boreal forest support a diverse array of wildlife including black bears, moose, wolves, and lynx.

The park vegetation is dominated by boreal forest species including black spruce, white spruce, jack pine, and balsam fir.

The Manigotagan River flows over Precambrian shield bedrock that forms the exposed foundation of this region.

The park experiences a continental boreal climate with long, cold winters and short, mild summers.

The Manigotagan River has been used for thousands of years by Anishinaabe peoples as a travel route.

Manigotagan River Provincial Park was established to protect the ecological integrity of the river system.

The primary attraction is paddling the Manigotagan River, which offers a multi-day wilderness canoeing experience.

As an undeveloped provincial park, Manigotagan River has no permanent facilities within park boundaries.

Protection of the Manigotagan River water quality and aquatic ecosystems is a primary conservation goal.
