Outdoor recreation

The City of Portage la Prairie provides and maintains a variety of public outdoor recreation facilities throughout the city, creating an environment for citizens of all ages to get outside and be active. We offer greenspace, an off-leash dog park, outdoor exercise equipment, numerous playgrounds, and a connected network of multi-use active transportation pathways for pedestrians and cyclists.

In addition to the existing 18 kilometers of multi-use and recreational pathways and over 49 km of sidewalks, the City has recently approved an extension to the existing network by adding a 565-meter-long multi-use pathway on the south side of Meighen Avenue from Mellco Drive to Garrioch Park Drive.

As well, new protected active transportation paths have been incorporated into the Saskatchewan Avenue West development, providing access to our downtown stores, restaurants, and west-end shopping district.
