Manitoba Opens More Campgrounds For An Extended Fall Camping Season

As a pilot project, the Manitoba Government has extended the operating season of several provincial campgrounds, allowing campers to stay as late as Thanksgiving.

“The public has told us they want more time to explore the great outdoors in many parts of our province and we want to find ways to make that happen,” Conservation and Water Stewardship Minister Tom Nevakshonoff said.  “We know that fall can offer beautiful weather and scenery, so we want to give hardy campers an opportunity to extend their camping season.”

The level of services available will vary by location, and campers should be prepared to bring their own drinking water and firewood. Park vehicle permits are not required in provincial parks from Friday, September 4th to Monday, September 7th. Nightly camping fees still apply.
