Half-way around this 0.8 km hiking trail, you’ll find one of Clearwater Lake Provincial Park’s special places, a natural phenomenon called "the caves," These are not true caves but rather deep crevices that formed when rock masses split away from shoreline cliffs. The caves are accessible by a self-guiding trail. While exploring this impressive park feature, please stay on the designated trail, use the stairways and viewing platforms. These are provided for your safety and to protect sensitive plant growth. Allow about 45 minutes.

The National Day for Truth and Reconciliation (#OrangeShirtDay) reminds us to confront the painful realities of the past and recognize their lasting effects. Acknowledging these truths is essential to moving forward on the path of healing and unity.

It's crucial that we continue to learn and take meaningful action in support of reconciliation with First Nations, Inuit, and Métis communities in Manitoba and across Canada. Here are some of the events happening in the province today that offer opportunities for reflection and learning:
