Pembina Valley Provincial Park

Pembina Valley Provincial Park is a protected area in Manitoba featuring steep cliffs, deep valleys, and diverse rock formations shaped by ancient glaciers. The park contains trails of varying difficulty with scenic viewpoints and sections that connect different parts of the landscape.

The area became an official provincial park in 2001 through collaboration between conservation authorities and local landowners. This establishment followed long efforts to protect the ecological value of the valley.

The valley has long been important to Indigenous peoples and early European settlers who built farms here. This heritage shapes how the landscape looks today and how people use this land.

Visitors should prepare for changing weather and varying trail conditions, as the terrain is exposed and paths differ by season. Sturdy footwear and plenty of water matter most, especially for longer walks through the valleys and along the cliff edges.

The area sits on a major migration route for birds, offering researchers and observers rare opportunities to document avian movements. This ecological focus makes the park interesting to scientists worldwide.
