Riding Mountain National Park

Riding Mountain National Park is a protected area in southwestern Manitoba, Canada, where the boreal forest of the Canadian Shield gives way to the vast prairie grasslands. Established in 1933, the park covers nearly 3,000 square kilometers of forested upland rising more than 450 meters above the surrounding farmland, creating a dramatic island of wilderness amid agricultural landscape. The park sits within Treaty 2 Territory and has been home to the Cree, Assiniboines, and Ojibwe peoples for thousands of years. What makes Riding Mountain ecologically significant is its position at the convergence of three distinct ecosystems: grasslands, upland boreal forest, and eastern deciduous forest, all protected within a single protected area.
