Manitoba Climate

A winter visit to Manitoba will give you a true Arctic winter experience complete with doses of icy winds, driving snow storms and cool, calm starry nights (not to mention periodic displays of the northern lights). July or August is the ideal time to visit for warm, sunny days and pleasantly cool nights.

The scenery and tourist opportunities are at their best in the summer months. This is also the best time for walking, canoeing, fishing or even hunting in the vast tracts of Manitoba wilderness. Festival season is in full swing through the summer with almost endless quirky and more mainstream events, from the Boissevain Turtle Derby, the Morris Stampede and the Morden Corn and Apple festival to the Winnipeg Fringe and Folk festivals.

Required Clothing

Light- to mediumweights during warmer months, heavyweights in winter. Waterproofing is advisable throughout the year.
