This gives you enough time to explore the historic dam ruins, walk the scenic trails, and enjoy the river viewpoints. <\/li>\n<li>Wear sturdy footwear. The trails include uneven rock, gravel paths, and exposed granite around the dam ruins. <\/li>\n<li>Bring your camera. The dramatic concrete ruins, rushing Winnipeg River, and surrounding forest make this one of Manitoba\u2019s most photogenic parks. <\/li>\n<li>The trails aren\u2019t well-marked which leads to a lot of fun exploration. The one golden rule is that you cannot climb on any of the dam ruins.<\/li>\n<li>Pack <a href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.ca\/dp\/B001GCU3VW?tag=goinawesplac-20\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" data-lasso-id=\"61338\" data-lasso-lid=\"224459\" data-lasso-name=\"Ben's 30% DEET Mosquito, Tick and Insect Repellent, 37ml Pump, Pack of 4\">bug spray<\/a>. Mosquitoes and black flies can be active during the warmer months, especially near the river.<\/li>\n<li>Check water conditions. The Winnipeg River has strong currents near the former dam, so always obey warning signs and stay away from restricted areas. <\/li>\n<li>Visit in the morning or late afternoon. The softer light makes for better photos and more comfortable temperatures during the summer.<\/li>\n<li>In addition to the hiking around the dam, there\u2019s also a covered picnic area, and playground. <\/li>\n<li>There are bathrooms in the area near the parking lot and picnic space but you won\u2019t find any near the dam.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image

locals took advantage of in the summer, word got out about this gem through social media and people started flocking to the <strong>Pinawa Channel<\/strong> with their own tubes.<\/p>\n<p>Owner, Tim, saw an opportunity and started <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/goingawesomeplaces.com\/float-and-paddle\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" data-lasso-id=\"61341\">Float &amp; Paddle<\/a><\/strong> which would make the experience easier by offering tube rentals, shuttle service, and a convenient place to park.<\/p>\n<p>Today, the relaxing tubing experience is well-streamlined and so easy, especially for travelers that aren\u2019t from the area to enjoy the calm waters while the forest and granite shoreline glide by.<\/p>\n<p>On a hot summer day, this is easily <strong>the area\u2019s most popular summer activity<\/strong>, allowing you to cool down, slow down, and enjoy Manitoba\u2019s outdoors.<\/p>\n<div class=\"wp-block-group define wyntk

This is a paid parking lot that\u2019s privately run by <a href=\"https:\/\/www.honkmobile.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" data-lasso-id=\"61344\">Honk<\/a>. It\u2019s a flat rate of $10 for the day. The same pass is valid at all Pinawa paid parking areas for the rest of the day.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Tips:\u00a0\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>You definitely need to book your float in advance.  Summer weekends often sell out where they won\u2019t even allow walk-ups.  Don\u2019t risk it and reserve your preferred time before your trip.<\/li>\n<li>Arrive at least 15 minutes early. <\/li>\n<li>The process looks like this after parking.  You\u2019ll check in, provide your car keys (with numbered wristband), board the shuttle to the launch site, pick up your tube and paddle, walk to the channel where staff will be there to help you get onto the water.<\/li>\n<li>The shuttle bus comes by every 5-10 minutes and it takes 10 minutes to get from the parking lot to the launch site.<\/li>\n<li>The actual time on the water is 2.5 to 3 hours.  If you paddle aggressively and constantly, you might be able to do it in 2 hours.<\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.ca\/ANLUKE-Womens-Water-Barefoot-Summer\/dp\/B078WRH9NG?tag=goinawesplac-20&amp;ref_=as_li_ss_tl&amp;linkCode=sl2&amp;linkId=7f66f11388c36ef18559b06e69263280\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" data-lasso-id=\"61345\" data-lasso-lid=\"233121\" data-lasso-name=\"ANLUKE Water Shoes for Women Men Quick-Dry Barefoot Aqua Socks Swim Beach\">These water shoes<\/a> or our <a href=\"https:\/\/goingawesomeplaces.com\/keen-newport-h2\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" data-lasso-id=\"61346\">favourite Keens<\/a> are recommended but if you\u2019re wearing sandals\/flip flops, they showed us that you can use the built-in straps with and buckle to keep them connected and secure.  This is because you don\u2019t want to be barefoot when you walking to the school bus shuttle, to the launch point, and after getting off the tube.<\/li>\n<li>Put on a ton of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.ca\/dp\/B014JZ548O?tag=goinawesplac-20\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" data-lasso-id=\"61347\" data-lasso-lid=\"224677\" data-lasso-name=\"Sun Bum Original SPF 50 Sunscreen Lotion | Vegan and Reef Friendly (Octinoxate &amp; Oxybenzone Free) Broad Spectrum Moisturizing UVA\/UVB Sunscreen with Vitamin E | 177 ml\">50 SPF sunscreen<\/a> beforehand as you won\u2019t have any shade at all during the float. A good hat, or better yet, something wide-brimmed will help protect you.<\/li>\n<li>Each person should have their own water bottle.  The good news is that the tubes have a built in bottle holder.<\/li>\n<li>How do your valuables work?  Leave your wallet and other valuables in the car.  For your car keys, you\u2019ll be giving it to the Float &amp; Paddle staff where they\u2019ll keep it in a numbered bin that\u2019s kept secure.

Compact\">travel towels<\/a> with you as you can dry off when you get back to the car.<\/li>\n<li>When you arrive at the launch site, you can choose between different tube colours.  The default one has a hole in the middle which means that your body will get wet.  You can request a more tube which has a sealed middle which is recommended if you don\u2019t want to get wet.<\/li>\n<li>Paddles are optional and while instinctively you might not want one, it\u2019s a good idea to have one because it helps with maneuvering (a bit clumsy but it works) as there are times where you might drift into the bank and need to push off or if you get stuck on a rock. There are the metal-tubed and wooden paddles. The wooden ones are better because you can slot them through the tube\u2019s handles when you aren\u2019t using them.<\/li>\n<li>For couples and larger groups, they suggest that you start linked together.  Each tube has a black strap that has snap buckles.  This is what allows you to connect with the handle of another tube.  This is the recommendation because once you disconnect, it\u2019s hard to join back up (especially if you don\u2019t have a paddle).<\/li>\n<li>The Suspension Bridge is right at the tube exit.  This is your opportunity to walk the bridge if you\u2019re interested.<\/li>\n<li>No alcohol is permitted on the river.<\/li>\n<li>The channel is a very slow moving river with a very moderate amount of current and no white water so it is very easy.<\/li>\n<li>There are toilets at the parking lot and also at the launch area so make sure to use them before you head into the water.<\/li>\n<li>There is another company called <a href=\"https:\/\/www.pinawaunplugged.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" data-lasso-id=\"61351\">Pinawa Unplugged<\/a> that operates on the channel, offering kayak tubes. They are not the same company but you\u2019ll find their registration desk across from Float &amp; Paddle.<\/li>\n<li>If you\u2019re looking to bring many drinks with you, we saw a few brilliant riders hook on a small cooler to their tube.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1200\" height=\"900\" src=\"https:\/\/goingawesomeplaces.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2027\/08\/chantelle-holding-frozen-pizza-coop-gas-station.jpg\" alt=\"chantelle holding frozen pizza at co-op gas station in pinawa\" class=\"wp-image-232818\" srcset=\"https:\/\/goingawesomeplaces.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2027\/08\/chantelle-holding-frozen-pizza-coop-gas-station.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/goingawesomeplaces.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2027\/08\/chantelle-holding-frozen-pizza-coop-gas-station-720x540.jpg 720w, https:\/\/goingawesomeplaces.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2027\/08\/chantelle-holding-frozen-pizza-coop-gas-station-768x576.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\"\/><\/figure>\n<p>Drying up after your afternoon float, drop by <strong>Solo Market<\/strong> to pick up everything you\u2019ll need for glamping. <\/p>\n<p>If you didn\u2019t earlier on your trip, this is your chance to grab snacks, drinks, breakfast supplies, and anything else you might need for your pizza night and a cozying around the fire.<\/p>\n<div id=\"callout-text\" class=\"callout-text is-style-type-red\">\n<div class=\"callout-text-content\">\n<p>If you happen to find the Solo Market closed, the Co-Op gas station sells frozen food including locally-made frozen pizza.\u00a0 Solo Market also has a connected C-Store which is their convenient store with extended hours and carries mainly alcohol and snacks.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1200\" height=\"900\" src=\"https:\/\/goingawesomeplaces.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2027\/08\/pinawa-motel-ice-cream-shack-with-chaeban.jpg\" alt=\"pinawa motel ice cream shack with chaeban\" class=\"wp-image-232884\" srcset=\"https:\/\/goingawesomeplaces.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2027\/08\/pinawa-motel-ice-cream-shack-with-chaeban.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/goingawesomeplaces.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2027\/08\/pinawa-motel-ice-cream-shack-with-chaeban-720x540.jpg 720w, https:\/\/goingawesomeplaces.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2027\/08\/pinawa-motel-ice-cream-shack-with-chaeban-768x576.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\"\/><\/figure>\n<p>As a customer of Float &amp; Paddle, your wristband will also allow you to save 10% at the <strong>Pinawa Motel<\/strong> ice cream shack.

The interior is cozily furnished with a comfy queen-sized bed, couch, and carpet. It\u2019s easy to make yourself at home because it almost doesn\u2019t feel like you\u2019re camping. Powered by solar, you also get the benefit of being able to charge your devices, sleep under the glow of the string lights, and cool down with a fan.<\/p>\n<p>On the deck is your cooking station with a propane grill, kettle stove, kitchenware, cleaning water, and a host of basic supplies to get you started. Next to the deck is your own private fire pit as well. The only missing is an en-suite bathroom, but there\u2019s a toilet nearby and the communal restroom with shower is easy to get to.<\/p>\n<p>Once you settle in, head up to the <strong>garden-inspired pavilion<\/strong>, the location of the <strong>clay pizza oven<\/strong>.  You\u2019ll need to start the oven yourself but once it\u2019s up to temperature, you\u2019ll be able to cook your frozen pizza.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images

They have domes, canvas tents, cabins, bunkie, and campsites available to rent.<\/p>\n<p>Something to note is they embrace a DIY concept. This means that you won\u2019t meet any of the staff that works there. Instead, you\u2019ll be provided information ahead of time digitally and you\u2019ll be given the freedom enjoy as you please. Of course, if you do have questions, you can text them and they are quite responsive.<\/p>\n<p>For activities, they use an honour system where you fill out the release forms in their Welcome Centre shed and you can sort out the equipment you need yourself.<\/p>\n<p>While it is promoted as a beginner-friendly site, we do think you need to have moderate camping experience because it\u2019s hands-off.<\/p>\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Address:<\/strong>\u00a071057 Brookfield Rd, River Hills, MB R0E 1T0<\/li>\n<li><strong>Parking:<\/strong> There is a large parking lot at the front of the property.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Website:<\/strong> <a href=\"https:\/\/wildskiesresort.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" data-lasso-id=\"61353\">Wild Skies Resort<\/a><\/li>\n<li><strong>Tent:\u00a0<\/strong>We stayed in the Luna tent which was incredibly spacious and beautifully furnished.  We particularly loved the string lights, comfortable bed, and the light.  Outside of the tent on the deck, you also have a fully equipped camping kitchen with utensils, cooking gear, and a fire pit.  The tent also has a really cool mechanism that covers the see through panels above if you don\u2019t want the sunrise to wake you up.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Meals:<\/strong> You\u2019re provided a portable gas-powered grill and fire pit at your tent.  You can also use the wood-fired pizza oven.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Location:<\/strong> Their property is adjacent to a calm river and is also backed by a forest.  It\u2019s also right off of Hwy 44 which makes it convenient to get to from Winnipeg.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Tips:<\/strong>\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>By the parking lot are several carts.  Use these haul your luggage and supplies to your tent.  They can fit a lot of gear in them so they\u2019re super handy.<\/li>\n<li>Come to Wild Skies Resort with everything fully charged including a good <a href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.ca\/dp\/B0DGKWTQQC?tag=goinawesplac-20&amp;ref_=as_li_ss_tl&amp;linkCode=sl2&amp;linkId=c27c48d99765aa034cf3a7d69da20e0f\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" data-lasso-id=\"61354\" data-lasso-lid=\"233118\" data-lasso-name=\"Anker Nano Power Bank, 45W Max Compact Battery Pack, Smart Display\">power bank<\/a>.  You can certainly charge in the tent but if you read the below, you\u2019re better to use it for something else.<\/li>\n<li>In the summer, it does get hot so you\u2019ll want to use the fan that\u2019s included which can be plugged into the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.ca\/EF-ECOFLOW-Portable-Charging-Generator\/dp\/B0B97H2XHS?tag=goinawesplac-20&amp;ref_=as_li_ss_tl&amp;linkCode=sl2&amp;linkId=8455dbc2c3b41a89a60c044766fcf55e\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" data-lasso-id=\"61355\" data-lasso-lid=\"233122\" data-lasso-name=\"EF ECOFLOW Portable Power Station River 2 Max, 512Wh LiFeP04 Battery\/ 1 Hour Fast Charging, Up to 1000W Output Solar Generator (Solar Panel Optional) for Outdoor Camping\/RVs\/Home Use\">EcoFlow River 2 Max power station<\/a>.  Since this relies on the solar panels and the previous guests may have drained it, you might only get 40-50% capacity when you arrive.  We suggest you save this power for the fan so you can use it throughout the night.<\/li>\n<li>If you plan on using the pizza oven keep in mind that you\u2019ll need 3-4 hours to get the pizza oven up to temperature for cooking pizza from scratch.  If you\u2019re cooking a frozen pizza, you\u2019ll only need 1-2 hours since you don\u2019t need it as hot and it cooks very fast.<\/li>\n<li>Similarly for the sauna, it is cold unless someone else has started it before you.  You\u2019ll need to start the fire yourself and let it heat up.<\/li>\n<li>Just like other parts of Manitoba, there can be a lot of mosquitoes here in the summer so make sure to cover up or use <a href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.ca\/dp\/B001GCU3VW?tag=goinawesplac-20\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" data-lasso-id=\"61356\" data-lasso-lid=\"224459\" data-lasso-name=\"Ben's 30% DEET Mosquito, Tick and Insect Repellent, 37ml Pump, Pack of 4\">mosquito repellent<\/a>.<\/li>\n<li>Create a shopping list for your meals.

We highly recommend to read this so you\u2019re best prepared.<\/li>\n<li>There are several small toilets scattered around the property but if you want to shower you\u2019ll be using the communal bathroom.

These\u2019ll help make sure your trip goes as smoothly as possible.<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-1-renting-a-car\">1 \u2013 Renting A Car<\/h3>\n<p>You\u2019ll most likely be landing in Winnipeg.  From there, we found that the rates at the airport were quite reasonable.  Since the airport is quite small as well, the short walk across to the car rental garage makes the process a cinch.<\/p>\n<p>When renting, a reminder to decline the fuel option.  It\u2019s really easy to fill up your tank before returning it.  This\u2019ll help you save more money.<\/p>\n<p>Lastly, while you will need to drive on gravel roads, a 4\u00d74 or SUV isn\u2019t necessary to get around so feel free to choose any class of car that you like.  The only class I\u2019d probably avoid is an EV since we did not notice many charging stations along the way.<\/p>\n<p>Remember, to get the best deals on rental cars, make sure to check out if any <a href=\"https:\/\/goingawesomeplaces.com\/best-car-rental-coupon-codes-save-insane-amount-money\/\" data-type=\"post\" data-id=\"21428\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" data-lasso-id=\"61401\">car rental coupon codes<\/a> apply for you.<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-2-check-operating-hours\">2 \u2013 Check Operating Hours<\/h3>\n<p>During the summer, you\u2019d think that all businesses are operating every day, but we quickly found that this isn\u2019t the case.<\/p>\n<p>Our trip spanned Sunday and Monday.  On Monday, we were hoping to have lunch at the Spicy Radish Cafe.  We didn\u2019t check their hours ahead of time and of course they are closed Monday and Tuesday.<\/p>\n<p>Another surprise happened on Sunday.  While in Pinawa, we were hoping to pick up supplies at Solo Market but turns out that on Sunday they only open from 12-4PM.<\/p>\n<p>This is a broad reminder for you to check each businesses operating hours as you build out your itinerary.  The big one to note is Float and Paddle is closed on Wednesday.<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-3-cellular-signal\">3 \u2013 Cellular Signal<\/h3>\n<p>When driving through Eastern Manitoba, you\u2019ll notice that your signal cuts in and out so even if you have a Canadian eSIM through a company like <a href=\"https:\/\/goingawesomeplaces.com\/alosim\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" data-lasso-id=\"61402\">AloSIM<\/a> or <a href=\"https:\/\/goingawesomeplaces.com\/knowroaming-offer\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" data-lasso-id=\"61403\">KnowRoaming<\/a>, you\u2019ll want to make sure you have important things available offline.<\/p>\n<p>Before your trip you should do the following:<\/p>\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Make Eastern Manitoba available offline on Google Maps using the <a href=\"https:\/\/goingawesomeplaces.com\/travel-hacking-caching-your-google-maps-for-when-you-have-no-data\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" data-lasso-id=\"61404\">\u201cOK Maps\u201d Command<\/a>.<\/li>\n<li>On Google Maps, pin important points of interest beforehand.<\/li>\n<li>If you use one of our Google spreadsheet itineraries, activate the \u201cMake available offline\u201d.<\/li>\n<li>Have important phone numbers either saved or in your Notes app in case you need to ask someone to call for you.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<div id=\"callout-text\" class=\"callout-text is-style-type-coupon\">\n<div class=\"callout-text-header\">\n<p>GET A FREE 1GB ESIM ON US<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"callout-text-content\">\n<p>KnowRoaming is offering a free 1GB eSIM when you sign up through our page.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><a class=\"block-callout-button\" href=\"https:\/\/goingawesomeplaces.com\/knowroaming-offer\"><span class=\"sm-caps\"> CLAIM FREE ESIM<\/span><svg width=\"24\" height=\"24\" aria-hidden=\"true\" role=\"img\" focusable=\"false\"><use href=\"#core-arrow-alt\"\/><\/svg><\/a><\/div>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-two-days-countless-manitoban-adventures\">Two Days, Countless Manitoban Adventures<\/h2>\n<p>A short road trip from the capital reveals an incredible mix of rugged Canadian Shield, winding riverways, and tranquil wilderness escapes. <\/p>\n<p>This <strong>2-day Eastern Manitoba itinerary<\/strong> gives you a complete blueprint to experience the region\u2019s top highlights\u2014from lazy river floats and ancient dam ruins to scenic waterfall hikes and farm-to-table dining\u2014all packed into one easily manageable weekend.<\/p>\n<p>Whether you\u2019re visiting for a quick weekend escape or expanding a larger Manitoba road trip starting in Winnipeg, this region delivers an unforgettable taste of Canada\u2019s outdoors. <\/p>\n<p>Pack your daypack, reserve your paddle gear, and hit the road to discover everything that makes the province of Manitoba such a breathtaking adventure!<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-frequently-asked-questions\">Frequently Asked Questions<\/h2>\n<div class=\"schema-faq wp-block-yoast-faq-block\">\n<div class=\"schema-faq-section\" id=\"faq-question-1785899333570\"><strong class=\"schema-faq-question\">Is two days enough to explore Eastern Manitoba?<\/strong> <\/p>\n<p class=\"schema-faq-answer\">Yes!
