Birds Hill Provincial Park

A Birthday Park for Canada

Birds Hill Provincial Park was officially opened on July 15, 1967 to celebrate Canada's 100th birthday. Located along PTH 59 approximately 24 km (15 mi.) north of Winnipeg, the park is 35.1 km2 or 13.6 mi.2. It is a mosaic of landscapes not commonly found in such close association, such as esker ridges, dry prairie, wet meadows, bogs, and aspen-oak and mixed boreal forest communities.

Classified as a Natural Park, its purpose is to preserve areas that are representative of the Aspen/Oak Parklands Natural Region, and accommodate a diversity of recreational opportunities.

Read more about the history of the park at the link provided at the top. The park is apparently named after the Bird family.
