Manipogo Provincial Park is a provincial park on the shore of Lake Manitoba, approximately 50 km (31 mi), northeast of Dauphin, Manitoba.[1] It is named after Manipogo, a lake monster reputed to live in the lake.[2]

The 0.61 km2 (0.24 sq mi) area was declared a provincial park in 1961.[2][3]

The park is located within the Waterhen ecodistrict of the Interlake Plain ecoregion, part of the Boreal Plains ecozone.[4]
