The Narrows is an unincorporated community in the Interlake region of Manitoba, Canada, situated on the northern part of Lake Manitoba within the Rural Municipality of West Interlake.
It is notable as the only place where Lake Manitoba can be crossed by bridge, the Lake Manitoba Narrows Bridge, which was built in the late 1960s.[1]
There are two Lake St. Martin First Nation reserves (The Narrows 49 and Narrows 49 A) located in the surrounding areas.
A site on the west side of The Narrows is believed to the only thunderbird nest in western Manitoba, although several occur in eastern Manitoba.[2]
