The Eastern Manitoba Region, enveloping the lands east of the Red River, Lake Winnipeg and the City of Winnipeg, offers tourists many varied and diverse experiences. The vast and varied landscape ranges from productive, serene farmland to the rugged scapes of the Precambrian Shield to beautiful lakes and major historic river waterways. This variety presents endless opportunities in agri tourism, eco tourism, white water rafting, canoeing, fishing, hunting and sporting opportunities of all types.
The culture is as varied as the landscape and tourists can enjoy the heritage experiences of the Cree and Ojibway First Nations. The immigrants of the late nineteenth century brought their cultures to the region and one can enjoy the Francophone, Ukrainian, Mennonite and Metis history and flavour of the area. Many festivals in the region feature the ethnic nuances of the residents with the museums depicting the history and struggles of the early settlers to this productive yet scenic part of Manitoba.
