With an area of 269 km2, Spruce Woods Provincial Park is characterized by spruce parkland, upland deciduous forest, mixed-grass prairie, open and stabilized sand dunes and riverbottom forest.
Classified as a Natural Park, its purpose is to preserve areas that are representative of the Assiniboine Delta Natural Region; and accommodate a diversity of recreational opportunities and resource uses.
The park will:
Provide nature-orientated recreational opportunities such as hiking, cross-country skiing, horseback riding and wildlife viewing in a largely undisturbed environment
Provide opportunities for high-quality intensive recreational developments such as trails, campgrounds, day-use areas and picnic sites
Protect and profile Aboriginal heritage in the Spirit Sands area and the early settlement along the Assiniboine River valley
Promote public appreciation and understanding of the park's natural features.
