La forêt provinciale de Sandilands a une superficie de plusieurs milliers d'hectares de dunes, forêts et regorge de zones humides. À l'époque glaciaire, cet espace boisé du bouclier canadien, était couvert de glaciers qui, en se retirant, ont laissé derrière eux, des moraines, des collines et de vastes quantités de sable. Cet espace boisé a été inscrit aux registres des forêts provinciales canadiennes, ces dernières ont été conçues avant tout comme une source d'approvisionnement en bois durable pour l'exploitation forestière. Aujourd'hui, quinze espaces boisés sont désignés "forêts provinciales" au Manitoba, totalisant près de 22 000 km2. Ces forêts sont gérées pour divers usages économiques, environnementaux, sociaux et culturels. Cette forêt protégée est un lieu de loisirs où la population se rend pour la randonnée, la chasse et le camping. La municipalité de La Broquerie est le village le plus proche de cette forêt provinciale de Sandilands. (fr)

Sandilands Provincial Forest covers close to 3,000 km2. Under , Provincial Forests were developed primarily as a source of sustainable timber supply for forestry operations. The Sandilands area has been logged for decades, and it is popular amongst most for hiking, hunting, and camping. The large sand eskers and hills were left behind by the last ice age as the glaciers retreated and deposited large rocks, boulders, and vast amounts of sand. These sand ridges sometimes called the Bedford Hills or Cyprus Hills, are the second highest point in Manitoba, behind Baldy Mountain. Sandilands Provincial Forest is a mixed deciduous‐coniferous forest comprising dry sandy ridges of trembling aspen, jack pine, and white birch mixed with wetter lowlands of black spruce, tamarack, white cedar, and black ash.
