CAMPING IN
MANITOBA
11
CAMPING HAS
COME A LONG
WAY IN THE LAST
50 YEARS.
You may have had a family tent that took
two hours to set up and seemed to leak
every time there was a summer shower.
Maybe your family was one of the lucky
ones to own a “state-of-the-art” 16-foot
trailer. Camping trips always produced
great adventures and wonderful family
memories. Campers felt they were lucky
to camp in campgrounds that boasted an
“outside biffy” and water taps only minutes
from the campsite. Many a flashlight
was lost down the “biffy” during those
nighttime bathroom runs. Most cooking
was done over an open fire or on a reliable
Coleman stove, which made even the
simplest food taste fabulous.
Times may have changed, but camping in
one of Manitoba’s great campgrounds is
still an adventure, with great memories of
and offer a variety of amenities, from
non-serviced sites to 50-amp electrical
full-serviced sites. Whether you want to visit
relatives or participate in one of the many
community fairs or special events around
the province, MACAP campgrounds have
over 4,000 camping spots available.
There are no “cookie cutter” style
campgrounds here. Every campground
is unique, offering different services
to their campers. Everything from
swimming pools, hot tubs, miniature
golf, river tubing, restaurants, canoe
and kayak rentals, to wireless Internet
service is available. The one thing
that all MACAP campgrounds have in
common is the personal service that our
owners/operators offer. They are always
available to help you.
Every campground
is unique, offering
different services
to their campers.
There are many ways to experience the
excitement of camping in Manitoba. With
Manitoba autumns offering beautiful
colours and weather, fall camping is a
great way to lengthen the camping season.
Almost every community has a fall supper
where the locals offer some of the best
home cooking available and bird watching
and photography become the activities
of choice.
time spent with family and friends. MACAP
(Manitoba Association of Campgrounds
and Parks), representing Manitoba’s
independently owned and operated
campgrounds, has campgrounds and
resorts located in all areas of the province
RV’s have definitely improved since those
first pulled-behind trailers. They are larger,
made of lighter materials and can have
every luxury imaginable. When you travel
with one of these RV’s you are travelling in
your own 5-star accommodations. You have
all the conveniences of home while visiting
the diverse regions of our province.
Visit around the campfire during a warm
summer evening or participate in one
of the campground events which differ
from campground to campground. Enjoy
watching the sun rise or set over a pristine
lake, participate in movie nights, concerts,
pancake breakfasts, firework displays or
horseshoe tournaments. Camping can
become addictive.
If you decide to give camping a try,
remember these tips. You must always
have a sense of humour and remember to
leave your watch at home. Stay up late,
scold less and laugh more. The general
consensus among camping families is that
camping brings the family closer together
because they are away from their normal
routine, enjoying a simpler lifestyle and
sharing good times. A camping vacation
can be a great way to travel with children.
They can go out to play or take part in
campground activities. There are likely to
be other children to meet and new places
to explore. Children of all ages will enjoy
an old-fashioned campfire complete with
stories, songs and stargazing.
Visit our website GoRVingManitoba.com
for a complete list of our campgrounds and
contact information. Enjoy the seasons.
Make beautiful Manitoba memories while
living the camping and RV lifestyle.

at the beach! With excellent beaches of all sizes, the
Interlake provides plenty of great places to stretch out
on the sand and relax. The Interlake isn’t only great
for its beaches – it’s also home to vast marshlands,
lush forests, a number of excellent golf courses and
great resorts. However, if you prefer to kick back,
you’re sure to find numerous options to choose
from. The only worry you’ll have while vacationing
in the Interlake is whether you’ll have time to enjoy
everything this attraction-packed area has to offer.

Feel like the first traveller to conquer the North
as you gaze upon pristine landscapes robed in
the whitest of snow. Much of Manitoba’s northern
wilderness is rugged, unspoiled land waiting to be
discovered. Rich in native culture and traditions,
the North provides a window into an Aboriginal
way of life that goes back hundreds of years. It also
provides visitors a rare glimpse at northern wildlife
such as polar bears, beluga whales and trophy-size
fish (no tall tales required). With visions of stunning
landscapes, majestic wildlife and swirling Northern
Lights dancing in your mind, you’ll leave the North
with memories that can’t be duplicated.

The Polar Bear Capital of the World
is the only human settlement where polar
bears can be observed in the wild. The bears
tip the scale at over 1,300 pounds, stand
10 feet tall and can move with surprising
speed and agility. Best viewing time is
October to early November.
Churchill is also famous with birders - some
250 species of birds including the rare
Ross Gull, nest or pass through on their
yearly migrations.
In summer, white beluga whales surface
and plunge in the blue-green waters of the
Churchill River. You’ll be talking distance
of the most vocal whales in the world.
More than 3,000 beluga whales come in
early July to feed and calve. Seals can also
be seen in the harbour and caribou are
frequently sighted along the coast.
Churchill, population 1,000, is accessible by
air or the Hudson Bay Railway line, which
was built over permafrost and muskeg
in 1929 and required a crew of 3,000 to
complete. The two-night, two-day trip
on VIA Rail from Winnipeg to Churchill
(1,600 km/1,000 mi.) provides comfortable
bedrooms or roomettes and fine Manitoba
cuisine in the dining car. Calm Air, Kivalliq
Air run regular scheduled air service from
Winnipeg, Thompson and Gillam year-round.
On the tundra, lichens and miniature shrubs
and flowers bloom each spring and fall.
A short distance inland are patches of
taiga (sub-arctic) forest, with black spruce,
scattered white spruce and a thick mat
of lichens.
Visitors are awestruck upon seeing the
haunting beauty of our aurora borealis
(northern lights). Blue, green and white
in colour, they swirl and dance in the still
northern sky - with performances that can be
seen on clear nights. According to legend,
the northern lights will dance their way down
to earth if you whistle at them. Why not give
it a try?
