Tour the extensive wetlands of Valeport Marsh on the southeast side of Last Mountain Lake where migrating shorebirds can be seen by the thousands. Walk along the mowed dyke-top trail and view the 900-acre wetland conservation project, or bring your canoe and enjoy a peaceful ride down the scenic Qu’Appelle River. A wide variety of ducks and grebes, including the Western Grebe are common on this floodplain marsh of the Qu'Appelle River Valley. The best wetland bird viewing is available during the spring migration and breeding period from late April to mid-July. There is a shaded picnic area available; overnight camping is not allowed.
