  • Narcisse Snake Dens

Rescheduled to June 5 due to the cold and wet spring weather

Register for the bus (wheelchair accessible) departing MAWA at 12:30pm or travel to Narcisse in your own vehicle and meet us there around 2pm. To register for the bus email Alison at [email protected] with "Snakes" in the subject line, spaces are limited. Free, everyone welcome!

Want to witness one of the wonders of the natural world, just 90 minutes outside Winnipeg? Every spring, thousands of red-sided garter snakes come together in roiling balls intent on mating. Join the MAWA community for 2.5 hours of independent watching, drawing, painting or writing en plein air.

Manitoba Conservation has worked hard to make this site wheelchair accessible. Bring your own food, drink and art supplies. Outhouse washrooms are available. Sunscreen and hats are recommended, as there isn’t much shade along the trails.

Bus will depart from MAWA at 12:30pm and will return around 6pm

Free! All welcome. Weather permitting (the snakes like sunshine!) Travel to Narcisse in your own vehicle or register for the wheelchair accessible bus to depart from MAWA. To register for the bus email Alison at [email protected] and put "Snakes" in the subject header.
