Spruce Woods Provincial Park is located in south-central Manitoba, Canada where the Assiniboine River passes through the delta of sediment left by the last glaciation.[2]
An area of open and stabilized sand dunes within the park provides habitat to species of plants and animals not found elsewhere in Manitoba.[2] In descending order of land area contained, the park lies within the Rural Municipalities of South Cypress, Victoria, and North Cypress.
The Government of Manitoba designated the area a provincial park in 1964.[2] The park is 269 square kilometres (104 sq mi) in size.[3] The park is considered to be a Class II protected area under the IUCN protected area management categories.[4] In 2020 it was designated a Canadian Dark-Sky Preserve by the Royal Astronomical Society of Canada.
