Steep Rock Quarry

Steep Rock Quarry

Overview

Steep Rock Quarry is a flooded former limestone quarry near the village of Steep Rock, on the west shore of Lake Manitoba. This abandoned quarry offers a protected water body with crystal clear turquoise waters, creating a unique micro-spot. Although small, the water body allows kitesurfing sessions in a spectacular setting, surrounded by white limestone walls. Interesting alternative when Lake Manitoba is too rough.
