The best MTB trails around Rosser

This large open green space offers an clear view towards Winnipeg Richardson International Airport thanks to the lack of trees and surrounding obstructions. Aircraft regularly pass overhead on approach and departure, making it a surprisingly good spot for a bit of plane watching while following the Yellow Ribbon Greenway. The mostly level terrain and wide-open sightlines also provide long views across the surrounding area, giving the park a much more open feel than many of Winnipeg's urban green spaces.

Stretching for approximately 5 kilometres, the Yellow Ribbon Greenway links Silver Avenue near Saskatchewan Avenue with Bruce Avenue in west Winnipeg. The paved multi-use trail passes through parks, sports fields, residential green spaces, and Air Force Heritage Park, creating a continuous corridor for walking, running, and cycling. Developed in partnership with 17 Wing Winnipeg, the greenway serves as a tribute to Canadian Armed Forces members who have served overseas, with interpretive features found along the route.

A collection of Royal Canadian Air Force aircraft lines the grounds of Air Force Heritage Park, offering a close look at several decades of Canadian military aviation. Highlights include the CF-104 Starfighter, CF-101 Voodoo, CF-100 Canuck, CT-133 Silver Star, and a Bell Kiowa helicopter. Many of the aircraft are displayed outdoors on static exhibit, making this a worthwhile stop for aviation enthusiasts and anyone interested in Canada's air force history.

There are a few nice paved trails to explore in the park, and the north side has some fairy houses and a cenotaph (empty burial memorial) to veterans of the first world war. You cross the creek via a pretty pedestrian bridge as it winds into the Assiniboine River.

Two long benches have been built by a clearing on the riverbank and offer a tranquil view of the Assiniboine. You can walk over via the singletrack Monkey Trail or the paved Wellington Crescent Trail. The path down to the lookout is accessible, well-maintained crushed gravel.

Omand Park is situated where Omand Creek flows into the north side of the Assiniboine River. The park has two baseball diamonds, trails that head in all directions, and access to a pedestrian bridge that crosses the river to Wellington Crescent.

This small park sits at the foot of Winnipeg's historic Maryland Bridge. You'll have access to the Assiniboine River as well as open grassy areas, and the pedestrian & cycle crossings that run along the bridge.

The Forks is the heart of Winnipeg. Frequented by Indigenous peoples thousands of years ago, it is now home to a pleasant park on the banks of the Red and Assiniboine Rivers, the Canadian Museum for Human Rights, and a lively market hall with shops and restaurants.
