Located in one of North America’s best bird viewing areas, this birder’s paradise is alive with the sights and sounds of the creatures that call this 36 sq. km. wetland home. Oak Hammock Marsh is located only a 20 minute drive north of Winnipeg.

The wildlife management area offers 32 kms of hiking trails, marsh boardwalks, canoe excursions and up-close bird viewing opportunities. It is home to 300 different species of birds and many mammals, reptiles, amphibians and fish. Identify feathered friends and learn the science and skill of banding birds through hands-on Songbird Banding Tours.

Fall migration at Oak Hammock Marsh is absolutely magical. It plays host to hundreds of thousands of geese, ducks, shorebirds and other species. It is a sight not soon to be forgotten.

The Visitor Centre, currently closed for a major renovation project, will reopen in May 2025 with updated exhibit halls, a 120-seat multi-media theatre, café, gift shop and outdoor courtyard combine to offer insight into the value of North American wetlands. The unique collection of exhibits, attractions and programs is ever-changing, so there is always something new and exciting to see and experience. Oak Hammock Marsh is open year-round.
