Ancient Valley Self-guiding Trail

The view is spectacular. The process of glaciation has shaped the landscape of Manitoba. The trail has six on-site interpretive signs that describe the processes of glaciation as one travels the trail. The rolling landscape beyond the trailhead is part of the glacial processes that took place about 8,500 years ago. Today the climate is much warmer and the land is once again free from past glacial events. The landscape today is lush and attracts an abundance of wildlife. As you descend the slope on the return trail, try to picture how the forces of glaciation have altered this landscape like no other force. Return distance is 3 km. Allow 1h 30 min.
