Pembina River Day Use Area offers four parking areas: Evansburg Trails, Entwhistle Trails, Booth Parking Lot, and the Lower Parking Lot by the river. These areas are connected by a network of trails, making it easy to explore the park.  

The Lower Parking Lot provides the most amenities, including a playground, outhouses, picnic tables, a picnic shelter, and river access for tubing at the designated pull-out location. Booth Parking serves as overflow parking when the Lower Lot is full.  

The Entwhistle parking lot is spacious and features a map kiosk for trail information, as well as a viewpoint overlooking the park, river, and bridge. Multiple trails from this area can be combined into loops for extended hikes.  

Evansburg offers trail access with roadside parking, while the southeast viewpoint provides scenic views of the park, river, and bridge, with trails leading down the hill to connect with the rest of the park. 

Amenities

  • Water taps are shut off in mid-September.
  • The lower parking lot closest to river is closed in the winter, however winter parking is available near the registration booth and by the trails on top the hill near Entwistle. Closure date depends on snowfall.
