Hello Winter Recreation Experts!

Visitors to our provincial parks are seeking new experiences and are interested in participating in winter recreational activities. Do you have a business idea that would offer an enjoyable and memorable experience for them?

We are looking for guided experiential-based activities for our visitors such as learning to run a dog team, photography, or a sleighride. Don't forget a warm campfire! These are just a few ideas, we're sure there are more out there, and we want to hear them.

Although all our parks are open for the public and are ready for a new experiential-based activity, five of them are offering winter camping from Nov. 1, 2022 - Mar. 31, 2023 and may see more visitor traffic than some of the others. These locations include Buffalo Pound, Cypress Hills, Duck Mountain, Echo Valley and Pike Lake Provincial Parks.

Current events and programs planned will include Christmas tree cutting in Cypress Hills, a Festival of Lights tour in Pike Lake and Candle Lake, Skate the Park in Echo Valley, plus snowshoeing, tobogganing, hiking and more in Buffalo Pound and Duck Mountain Provincial Parks.

Submit an idea to enhance the offerings in one of these parks or help us expand to another location! Ideas for experiential-based activity in all provincial parks will be considered.

If you are interested in investigating a new business opportunity with Sask Parks or would like to discuss it further, please contact Jolene McDonald at 306-798-8766 or email jolene.mcdonald@gov.sk.ca.

Let's provide visitors with an opportunity to enjoy what Saskatchewan winters have to offer.
