As the vibrant colours of fall have swept across Manitoba, the cooler, crisp weather makes it the perfect time to get outside and stay active before winter truly sets in. Living in a Northtowne Properties apartment in Winnipeg, Lorette, or Ste. Anne means you have easy access to beautiful parks, trails, and amenities designed to help you enjoy the season.

Here is your guide to staying active and enjoying the outdoors near your Northtowne home this fall:

Embrace the Trails: Fall Walks and Biking

The beautiful autumn scenery is best experienced on foot or bike. The cooler temperatures are ideal for longer walks without the intensity of summer heat.

  • Riverside Trails (Ste. Anne): If you live at Bellemore Banks, you are nestled along the Seine River, providing immediate access to picturesque walking paths. Enjoy a tranquil stroll with breathtaking river views as the foliage changes colour.
  • Community Strolls (Winnipeg): Residents at Hillbrook Ridge in Northeast Winnipeg can enjoy leisurely strolls around the community lake, offering a beautiful setting right in the neighborhood.
  • General Exploration: Many of our properties are near established community parks and greenways. Look up local municipal maps for trails in your area—it’s the perfect time to discover a new route near your apartment rental.

Fun for Your Furry Friend: On-Site Dog Parks

If you are a responsible pet owner, fall is the perfect season for maximizing playtime before the snow hits.

  • Dedicated Dog Parks: Take advantage of the dedicated, fenced dog parks available at properties like Mackinley Towns and Bellemore Banks. These spaces offer a safe, off-leash environment for your dog to socialize and burn energy. A brisk walk to and from the dog park, followed by a good run, ensures you both get necessary exercise.

Neighborhood Adventures and Local Amenities

Stay active by incorporating local points of interest into your routine.

  • Active Commuting: If your Northtowne apartment is close to work or local amenities, consider walking or biking for those short errands instead of driving. Properties like Woodford Townhomes benefit from being just a few blocks from a shopping center, making a quick walk for groceries easy.
  • Explore Local Recreation: In Lorette, residents of Platinum Ridge are close to the town's impressive sports complex. While the hockey rink is enclosed, the large park spaces and surrounding paths provide plenty of room for family activities or jogs before the snow covers the ground.

Fall Fitness Tips for Renters

  • Layer Up: Dress in layers so you can easily adjust to the changing temperatures during your outdoor activity.
  • Stay Hydrated: Even when it’s cool, you need water. Carry a reusable water bottle on your walks or bike rides.
  • Plan for Less Daylight: As daylight hours shorten, always prioritize safety by choosing well-lit paths for late afternoon or evening walks.

Enjoy the fresh air, the vibrant scenery, and the convenience of your location this autumn. Your Northtowne apartment is the perfect base for an active fall season!
