Winnipeg Bodies of Water
Assiniboine River
The Assiniboine River travels across the prairies of Saskatchewan and Manitoba for 1,070 km (665 mi), from near Preeceville, Saskatchewan to Winnipeg, Manitoba, where it joins with the Red River. It is named after the Assiniboine First Nations people.
Lake Manitoba
Lake Maintoba is the smallest of the province's three large lakes, at 4,624 sq km (1,785 sq mi). The lake played an important role in Canada's early fur trade and is rumoured to be the home of the mysterious creature of the deep, Manipogo.
Red River
Red River rises at Wahpeton, North Dakota and Breckenridge, Minnesota and winds its way north along the North Dakota-Minnesota border into Manitoba, Canada. It continues north to Winnipeg, where it joins with the Assiniboine River at the Forks and continues to Lake Winnipeg. Approximately 885 km (550 mi) in length, the Red River was a busy fur-trader route.
