Aweme:
Criddle /
Vane Provincial Park

The park is located in southwestern Manitoba about 40 kilometres
southeast of Brandon. It preserves and protects the heritage value of
the former homestead of the Criddle/Vane family. The Park accommodates
nature-oriented recreational and educational opportunities and
experiences that are respectful of the natural setting and historic
environment.
The Criddle and Vane families are Manitoba pioneers well-known for
their contributions in the fields of science, art, sports, and culture,
as well as for their somewhat eccentric lifestyle. They settled in
Manitoba in 1882, and the last family members left the homestead in
1960.


The Criddle / Vane Provincial
Heritage Park has Interpretive signs guiding your walk along the
