Duff Roblin Provincial Park, Provincial park near Winnipeg, Canada
Duff Roblin Provincial Park is a 56-hectare park surrounding a section of the Red River Floodway with an inlet control structure. The space features multiple observation points and walking trails that connect visitors to different views of the floodway system.
The Manitoba government established this park in June 2008 to honor former Premier Duff Roblin, who served from 1958 to 1967. Roblin initiated construction of the Red River Floodway, a major infrastructure project that shapes the landscape visitors see today.
This park stands on Treaty 1 Territory, honoring the traditional lands of the Anishinaabe and Cree peoples and the central region of Metis homeland. Walking through the space, visitors encounter this recognition of Indigenous presence and history.
You can reach the park via Courchaine Road, which connects from the east to St. Mary's Road or from the west to PTH 75. The terrain is flat and easy to navigate, with clearly marked paths leading to different viewing areas.
The viewing platform displays an original piston from the floodway gates, a piece of machinery that visitors can examine up close. This location also marks the starting point of a 44-kilometer trail that extends through the region.
