Pisew Falls Provincial Park — Attraction in Local Government District of Mystery Lake

One of Manitoba’s best kept secrets! Well worth making the trip if you’re in Winnipeg or area, even though it’s a long drive. It’s neat to see the scenery change from autumn farmland to early winter in the Canadian Shield/tundra as you move closer to the 55th parallel. The park itself is beautiful - you get a teaser as you cross Sasagiu Rapids, and can hear the falls before you see them.

Once in the park you can enjoy the falls from an easy viewing platform just a few minutes from the parking lot.

It's also the starting point for the hike to Kisitchewan falls whice are inaccessible by any means short of hiking or canoe.

Lots of great pics to be had, and an afternoon that was...

Late post but better late than never! Went to Pisew Falls! Wow! Words cant describe how the falls were in person! The pics and vids don't do it justice! Definitely have plans to go back and stay longer! Did the backcountry trail at Pisew and stayed at a site with waterfalls that can only be seen from doing the trail! The trail is bit longer by few km than the app I was using stated! Was fine by me.. got more time in the awesome wilderness!!! The campsite was also prepared by somebody with a chainsaw! Hats off to whom took their time to make seats to sit on! We pitched up on the rapids side! Unless you are a heavy sleeper! Bring ear plugs lolz gets loud at night! The trail had lots of over grown sections but wow definitely...
