Medicinal Plant Walk

Along with the dance/music presentation, the Step Back in Time Walk, the Bison Walk, and special programming, there are guided tours available every day. We went on a Medicinal Plant Walk with one of Wanuskewin’s wonderful guides whenever we visited.

You are welcome to explore the 7km of walking trails that Wanuskewin currently offers. Along the way are lots of plants and herbs. A guide showed us how to use a variety of berries, leaves, and plants—some of which we would even consider weeds—medically to treat various illnesses.

Certain plants have several uses, such as treating bug bites or acting as a natural sunscreen. This fascinating walking tour highlighted some of nature’s real marvels.
