1.

Glide past  zany warming huts and see so much of the city as you take to the Nestaweya River Trail, one of the world’s longest naturally frozen skating trails which stretches out from The Forks along the Red and Assiniboine Rivers.

2.

Breathe in that balmy biome air while observing butterflies, towering plants and Canada’s tallest indoor waterfall within The Leaf, Assiniboine Park’s newest world-class attraction.

3.

Be inspired to make a difference when you journey from darkness to light through the interactive galleries of the Canadian Museum for Human Rights.

4.

Celebrate the snow at FortWhyte Alive where cross-country skiing, snowshoe hikes, the Richardson RRRun toboggan slide and ice fishing are always on the agenda.

5.

See how millions of coins from across the globe are made on a tour of the Royal Canadian Mint.

6.

Navigate the icy walls of the world’s largest snow maze—as verified by Guinness— at A Maze in Corn.

7.

Be whisked away across the universe in the Planetarium, stroll the boardwalk of 1920s Winnipeg, and see incredible local fossils–including a 90-million-year-old intact pliosaur at the Manitoba Museum.

8.

Jig the day and night away to live music, savour all that maple taffy and French food and marvel at the massive snow sculptures during Festival du Voyageur, Western Canada’s largest winter festival. February 17 to 26, 2023.

9.

Skate beneath the dazzling lights at night on the on-land trails, play some crokicurl (a game invented in Winnipeg) and do some sliding at Arctic Glacier Winter Park at The Forks.

10.

Witness the internationally celebrated snow-drift like architecture that houses the world’s largest collection of contemporary Inuit art at Winnipeg Art Gallery-Quamajuq. While there, be sure to check out the new exhibit at the WAG, Red is Beautiful by influential First Nation artist Robert Houle before it ends on March 27.
