Winnipeg: Northern Terminus of the "Palm to Pine Highway"

Winnipeg stands as the definitive northern gateway of the historic Jefferson Highway, proudly serving as the "Pines" end of the legendary "Palm to Pine Highway" connecting Canada to New Orleans. As the capital and largest city in Manitoba, Winnipeg is a cultural and historical hub where auto trail travelers can immerse themselves in the rich heritage that defined the route's inception. Explore the city’s heart at The Forks National Historic Site, visit the stunning architecture of the Canadian Museum for Human Rights, and step back in time in the historic Exchange District. For those tracing the route, Winnipeg offers not only a monument marking the international terminus, but also a vibrant, resilient city built on a foundation of trade and transportation.
