Welcome to cabin country – where rolling parkland transitions to northern boreal forest that covers half of the province and frames nearly 100,000 lakes and rivers.

At these 11 provincial parks and recreation sites in central and southeast Saskatchewan, opportunities abound for boating and watersports, fishing, canoeing, kayaking and sunny summer days on the beach.

Saskatchewan is located on the North American Central Flyway, one of the four major migratory bird routes on the continent. As such, there are enough opportunities for birdwatching that a dedicated birder could spend a summer spotting our feathered friends.

When was the last time you wandered through the woods? Enjoy the call of the wild at Prince Albert National Park with 3,875 sq. km of outstanding natural wonders where parkland meets forest. 

Saskatchewan’s two largest cities continue to surprise and impress with a full menu of familiar and upcoming culinary establishments. Here is a sampling of places to check out on your next urban dining tour in Saskatoon and Regina.

Hunting, foraging and fishing have been employed by Indigenous people in one form or another for thousands of years in northern Saskatchewan. Now, people are sharing that abundance with the rest of the world.
