CAMP MORTON PROVINCIAL PARK TRAILS

Camp Morton Provincial Park is a new area for cross-country skiing in Manitoba’s
Interlake. The park has 12.4 kilometres of trails of fering excellent skiing for all levels
of skiers, from novice to advanced. Skiers will enjoy picturesque winter views of Lake
Winnipeg and of forests of oak, ash, birch and spruce.

There are several loop trails so a skier or hiker may choose the most suitable trails and
distances. The new west side Pincherry T rail has a variety of interesting terrain and
a nearby fox den is namesake for the second west side ski trail. On the east side of
P.R. 222 the Moonshine Trail is mostly flat with two short steep hills. It is named for
an old still found hidden in a secret hollow along the trail. The Ravine Trail offers
many good views of Lake Winnipeg and an exciting downhill run at the ravine. The
Birch Trail winds through a pure stand of birch trees and is especially suited for
novices. The Steeple View Trail is also ideal for novices and gives skiers a glimpse
of the bell tower at St. Bendict’s Church at Camp Morton. The Gimli Cross-country
Ski Clubs rustic warming shelter is located near the parking lot at the start of the trail
system. Nearby, a toboggan slide down to Lake Winnipeg will provide a change of pace
for alternative family recreation.

Through a co-operation agreement with the Parks and Natural Areas Branch
these trails and facilities are developed and maintained for public use by the Gimli
Cross-country Ski Club. Membership in the club supports the continuing development
and maintenance of these facilities. The Gimli Cross-country Ski Club invites all who
use these trails to become members. For more information contact the Gimli Cross-
country Ski Club, P.O. Box 1312, Gimli, Manitoba R0C 1B0.
