This 1-km loop trail has a total elevation gain of 764 feet. The trail starts at the information sign at the southeast corner of the parking lot. The path is wide and grassy. At 0.3 the path descends slightly and begins to follow along the shore of a small stream. Shortly thereafter an unofficial trail goes straight ahead to a nice view of the Assiniboine River. The official trail turns right and crosses the stream at 0.5. Unfortunately, there is no bridge. Low water conditions might allow hikers to cross easily, but if you have no desire to wade in ankle deep water in near freezing weather, consider returning to the parking lot. According to the park map, the trail forms a 1-km loop on the other side of the stream for a total distance of 2 km.
This 2.3-km loop trail has a total elevation gain of 764 feet. The trail surface is grass and packed dirt. Start at the northeast corner of the parking lot and descend to the information sign near the river. From here, the path enters the forest. The path is wide and grassy. At 0.2 a short herd path leads to a nice view of the river. At 0.4 another herd path branches to the right. Eventually, the trail curves to the left. At 0.9 an unmarked post is placed at the eastern-most point on the loop. At 1.2 there is a nice view of the river. At the junction at 1.6 turn left to stay on the Wild Grape Trail. At an un-signed 4-way junction turn left again to return to the parking lot, but be warned, this last section of the trail has the potential to be muddy, or even completely flooded. If this is the case, you may continue ahead and follow the path along the edge of the forest to your left. Take the second path re-entering the forest, and you will quickly return to the parking lot.
Leaving Winnipeg, travel west 10 km/6.2 mi. on Roblin Blvd./PR 241. Access is via a short gravel drive off of Provincial Road 241 west of Headingley.
