First Nation peoples have used the river for centuries, and their petroglyphs and rock paintings can be found on some shoreline cliffs. The river along with many other rivers on the east side of Lake Winnipeg is part of a unique wilderness area untouched by major developments such as logging roads, mines, or dams.
The Bloodvein River became Manitoba's first Canadian Heritage River in 1987 and most of the river is within Atikaki Provincial Park and the Woodland Caribou Provincial Park in Ontario. It is included on Canada's Tentative List for World Heritage sites and has the potential of being part of a United Nations World Heritage Site.
The First Nation community of Bloodvein situated at the mouth is the only major community along the river. The community is served by the Bloodvein River Airport.
Before the winter road was created, besides air, access to the community was only by the ferry the HMV Edgar Wood.
