Manigatogan River

Manigatogan River

The Manigatogan River flowing into the eastern side of Lake Winnipeg is a rare remote river of southern Canada. The last southern herd of woodland caribou in Canada can be found near this river and in Nopiming Provincial Park. Logging roads and overdevelopment can potentially threaten the important habitat and ecology of this area. The river was recently protected as an important ecological area, popular for canoeing, and close to the many remote and pristine rivers along the east side of Lake Winnipeg. These eastern rivers in Manitoba are the last undeveloped rivers in southern Canada.
