About Us
Wilderland Adventure Company was founded as an innovative social enterprise focusing on bridging the gap between disconnected youth and Manitoba’s great outdoors. We are an ecotourism outfitter that serves individuals and influencers of children and youth (like parents, teachers, youth workers, and outdoor leaders) in order to help them provide life changing experiences in our community.
We offer year round programs, tours, courses, and outdoor professional development. We started from roots of off-shoot guiding to now being an essential partner for Churches, schools, corporate teams, families, and commwercial tourism partners.
We believe that outdoor activity is becoming more important for people to connect with nature, experience an adventure, and engage with Canadian heritage. Our services help make your experience safe, really fun, and truly rewarding.
Here at Wilderland Adventure Co, our goal is to create outdoor adventure experiences at the highest quality while making them affordable and accessible to everyone. We're excited to help you get outdoors!
We invite you to look around our site for a tour, course, or workshop that inspires and equips you for local outdoor adventure. Can't find what you're looking for or need help...feel free to contact us.
