Hey there, time traveller!

The newest section of the Nestaweya River Trail is now open. The ice skating trail now extends three kilometres along the Assiniboine River from The Forks Port Rink to Hugo Docks.
Begining next week, the river trail crew will move to the Red River and work on extending the trail toward the Norwood Bridge and beyond.
Winnipeggers are invited to donate toward the Nestaweya River Trail this year by “adopting” a metre through Trail Together campaign in support of The Forks Foundation. Over 750 metres have already been adopted. Those interested can make a donation of $50 and put their name on a metre of river trail at the official website.
The Forks only tests ice on the official trail. All other areas are not tested and people are asked to stick to the marked trail only. Current skating and ice conditions are posted online.
