Le Parc Wanuskewin

Over six thousand years ago, Wanuskewin echoed with the bisons' clanging hoofs and the voices of the indigenous peoples of the northern plains. The ground holds archaeological treasures that Wanuskewin interprets for the benefit of visitors and the province's people. The nomadic societies that roamed the northern plains gathered at this site of outstanding beauty. Today, visitors can relive the journey of people who came here to hunt buffalo, gather food and herbs and escape the winter winds. Walking in their footsteps, you will understand why this site of deep spirituality was a place of worship, celebration and renewal with the natural world to this day. Some archaeological dig sites date back to an era older than the Egyptian pyramids. On its way to obtaining the ultimate recognition as UNESCO World Heritage Site, this place, with its galleries and resources, constitutes a jewel worth admiring, an unprecedented experience to live and relive. Guided tours are available in French.
