New Yurts Coming To Duck Mountain Provincial Park
Manitoba Parks shared some images of the brand new yurts at Childs Lake Campground in Duck Mountain Provincial Park which just about finished construction. These roofed accommodations will open mid-August of 2023.
“We know many Manitoba campers are eager to experience our beautiful provincial parks by camping in a yurt, and that is why I am excited to announce that four new yurts will be ready to welcome guests within the next few weeks.
This is one of many projects that are underway and being developed as part of our government’s new parks strategy that we unveiled in May. This bold plan prioritizes projects that enhance recreational opportunities and protect our precious ecosystems.”
As part of the $220 million Manitoba Provincial Parks Infrastructure Renewal Strategy, campers will see a 50 per cent increase in yurts, more campsites with electrical service, enhanced interactive experiences along with improved services and access to nature in each of the 20 busiest provincial parks. The strategy focuses on two streams that invest $121 million in parks infrastructure and $103 million in roadway renewal within and around provincial parks over the next 10 years.
Reservations for the new yurts will open August 10th at 9 a.m. For more information, visit www.manitobaparks.com.
