While Selkirk is a year-round destination, the best time to visit for most travellers is during the summer months, from June to August, or the late spring and early autumn for specific activities.Summer offers the warmest weather and the widest range of outdoor activities. Temperatures are generally pleasant, making it ideal for exploring the Red River, fishing, or enjoying the many local parks. This is also when many local festivals and events take place, offering a lively experience. Families often find summer the most convenient time to visit due to school holidays, with attractions like the Selkirk Park and Marine Museum of Manitoba being particularly popular.For those interested in angling, particularly for channel catfish, late spring (May to early June) and early autumn (September to October) are prime times. The cooler temperatures during these periods are often preferred by serious fishermen, and the river conditions are usually excellent for a good catch.
