River Road Provincial Heritage Park, MB, Canada
How to get to River Road Provincial Heritage Park
The park lies roughly 25 to 30 km north of downtown Winnipeg, about a 30 to 40 minute drive via Main Street and Highway 9, with River Road itself branching off Highway 9 near St. Andrews. From Selkirk it is a short 10 to 15 minute drive south on Highway 9. The nearest major airport for fly-and-rent travelers is Winnipeg James Armstrong Richardson International Airport, approximately 40 km away. River Road is a narrow, winding heritage route with low-clearance trees, tight shoulders, and limited turnaround space, so large motorhomes and trailers should plan to park at Lower Fort Garry or Captain Kennedy House lots and explore on foot or by tow vehicle.
