Following the Crow Wing Trail

A group of travelers, riding on horse drawn wagons, made their away across South Eastern Manitoba this weekend following the historic Crow Wing Trail from Emerson to St.Malo (65 km in all). The Crow Wing Trail, also part of the Transcanada Trail, and an important trading route in the1800’s, could become, as early as next year, a themed tourism package for those looking for a hands on experience of Manitoba’s history in the region.

18 invited participants, mostly from the tourism sector, took part in this 3-day excursion organized by the Economic Development Council for Manitoba Bilingual Municipalities (CDEM). The goal: to work out the logistics of offering such a tour all the while looking for ways to make the experience as authentic as possible. Many of the participants were new to the Crow Wing Trail and were surprised not only by its rich history but by the beauty of its landscape.

Winnipeg River Heritage Museum Will Go Ahead

From its historical and ancient beginnings through to modern times the Winnipeg River has played a significant part in the lives of the people who live near and travel on it. It is the significance of the Winnipeg River, the interaction of the River with the people, and the ultimate impact on the history of Canadian settlement, which is the primary focus of the Winnipeg River Heritage Museum. Part of the impetus for this development is to allow the communities to benefit through economic growth and revitalization that would be associated with a facility of this kind.
