convention
Lazy Bear Lodge Expeditions
Explore the wildlife and wonders of Churchill with a fall
expedition on the specially designed Arctic Crawler along the
coast of Hudson Bay with curious bears approaching for a
photo, or adventure out onto the Bay by boat in the summer to
view the bears and beluga whales in their natural habitat.
Believe it or not, life's a beach in the
prairies, and when the city gets hot
locals often flock to the countless
surrounding lakes along with the white
sand beaches of Lake Winnipeg –
the 12th biggest lake in the world.
On the opposite side of the lake and equally charming is
the community of Gimli, a fishing and resort town that was
settled by Icelanders (it even features a prominent Viking
statue in the middle of the town, while the majority of the
town's inhabitants are blue-eyed blondes – we kid you
not). Summer activities include swimming, fishing, boating,
hiking and kiteboarding, while winters can be just as fun for
snowmobilers and cross-country skiers.
