Overview

  • This day-trip begins with a drive down the historic River Road Parkway, pausing at St. Andrews Rectory for tea, dainties, and a tour of 19th-century life. Upon arrival at Lower Fort Garry National Historic Site—the most complete stone fur-trading post in North America—you will step back in time. The tour explores the massive stone fort through a stroll among original limestone buildings, where costumed interpreters bring the vibrant stories and daily rhythms of the 1800s fur trade to life.

    The journey continues into Lockport for a relaxing lunch at a local restaurant. Afterwards, the day shifts to a unique engineering marvel at the St. Andrews Lock and Dam, the only one of its kind in North America. Here, American White Pelicans congregate, allowing you to stand mere feet from these massive birds. Cap off the adventure with a stop at the colossal Red River Floodway to learn about the region's historic floods, before enjoying a short, relaxing drive back to the city.
