The Forks

Six thousand years ago someone thought this would be a cool place to hang out. Six thousand years later, it still is. In fact there would be no Winnipeg without The Forks.

One of the loveliest public spaces in Winnipeg and a "must see" for any visitor, The Forks is an expanse of riverside property in the heart of downtown Winnipeg. A meeting place for thousands of years, it is the city's most popular gathering place, attracting more than five million visitors each year.
