Saskatchewan Tourist Attractions: 11 Amazing Places to Explore

Saskatchewan is filled with many unique places that can be explored on a family trip, solo getaway, or even your honeymoon. If you plan your trip here, you must take at least two weeksโ€™ holiday since there is an unending list ofย tourist attractions, special activities, and things you can try.ย There are many unique places in Saskatchewan that you can check out. Despite being one of Canadaโ€™s prairie provinces,ย Saskatchewanโ€™s amazinglyย varied landscape provides some surprising activities.

1. Prince Albert National Park2. Saskatoon3. Cypress Hills4. Fort Walsh National Historic Site5. RCMP Heritage Centre6.ย Batoche National Historic Site7. Moose Jaw8. Quโ€™Appelle Valley9. The Battlefords10. Manitou Lake11. Wanuskewin Heritage Park

1. Prince Albert National Park

I highly recommend you visit the Prince Albert National Park. And I am sure you must have already heard a lot about it.

This popular wildlife-watching spot has dramatically evolved over the years, and now you can find several small lakes with beautiful highlands. At the northernmost of this forest, you will find white pelicans. Besides this species, you will also get the chance to find several other animals. You can come across moose, foxes, eagles, and wolves. There you will see squirrels, deer, and elk-like animals.

Waskesiu Main Beach, one of Saskatchewanโ€™s beautiful beaches, is also in the park. The sand here shares land with the Waskesiu Lakeโ€™s eastern shore.

2. Saskatoon

Let me tell you something about one of the most enjoyable cities there- Saskatoon. Itโ€™s located on the Southern Saskatchewan River. I know many people are keenly interested in learning about the history of different places. If, you are also one of them. this city should be your next destination.

Iโ€™ll explain the reason behind this. The city boasts museums depicting the rich art, culture and history of different areas. Some best museums you must visit there are:

  • Ukrainian Museum of Canada
  • Western Development Museum
  • ย Remai Modern Museum
  • Museum of Natural Sciences

If you are coming with your kids, I will highly recommend you visit the Saskatoon Forestry Farmย Park & Zoo. The beast collection and the zoo itself are loved by children.

3. Cypress Hills

If you want to explore some magnificent outdoor attractions visit the Cypress Hills. The region is home to world-class outdoor attractions, including an inter-provincial park straddling the Alberta-Saskatchewan border. You can even find theย Grasslandsย National Park near the US border.ย 

This park is vast and provides an excellent possibility to reconnect with nature. You can enjoy it by setting a campfire at night and gazing at an incredible dark sky filled with a billion stars. Sinceย Cypress Hills Interprovincial Parkย is also aย Dark Sky Preserve, it offers excellent stargazing opportunities. Located 52 kilometres away from Maple Creek, thisย place is worth visiting.

4. Fort Walsh National Historic Site

This one is also an interesting site to visit. Let me tell you the story behind it. Fort Walsh National Historic Site is an important siteย built in 1875ย to counter the illegal trade of whiskey. The problem was fixed, and later this site was hailed as a vital post in the area. Soon the Fort Walsh National Historic Site became famous forย scoring refugesย from their clash with the US Cavalry.ย 

The Fort Walsh National Historic Site came in negotiation with the native peoples, the whiskey traders, and the Sioux warriors and thus became a crucial site in Saskatchewan. Soon after the organization was moved toย Ontario, this place was returned to its former glory and became a historic site. Visitors can enjoy various outdoor activities here; they can engage in hiking the rugged trails.

5. RCMP Heritage Centre

This can be an excellent place for your Saskatchewan exploration, and you will not find any other heritage center like this one. Even though theย RCMP heritage centerย mainly displays weapons, past photographs, and various equipment, you can still enjoy theย Royal Parade RCMP.ย You can watch the parades from the two distinct centers.

However, the Majorโ€™s Parade is shifted to the Drill Hall; in any case, the weather is not supportive, and the Summer Retreat is the most famous parade.

6.ย Batoche National Historic Site

When you head to the Batoche National Historical site, you can witness the events that occurred in theย decisive battle with the Northwest Rebellion in 1885. The St. Antoine de Padoue (1883-84) church still displays the markings of bullet holes and their shells.ย The site is well-served by a shuttle bus; you can even witness the gravestones of the Metis who died in the rebellion battle.

7. Moose Jaw

This city is situated between the banks ofย Moose Jaw River and Thunder Creek. From the time of Chinese immigrants, the Tunnels of Moose Jaw have been hailed as an important tourist site. You can even enjoy your time by exploring the place wearing the obsolete local dresses of Moose Jaw citizens. In addition, there is also a notable museum that is worth visiting โ€“ depicting Prairie transportation.

8. Quโ€™Appelle Valley

Here you can visit the valley created by the glacier waters. I am sure you will love this area, This place has sculpted another eight important lakes and a beautiful garden-like area where tourists can enjoy the unique atmosphere created by the Quโ€™Appelle Valley lakes. Tourists frequently visit this park during the summertime; there are three distinctย parksย visitors love to explore, namely the Buffalo Pound Provincial Park, Crooked Lake Provincial Park, and Echo Valley Provincial Park.

There you will find a couple of lakes, where you can take an evening stroll with your family members and even enjoy your time camping. The gardens have facilities to play golf and go hiking and a waterfront where you can spend your time.

9. The Battlefords

Yet another important tourist destination, where you can find the two different cities settled on both sides of the Saskatchewan River. The city offers you the lowest living costs in comparison to other towns there. It is a perfect destination for outdoors and picnicking.

10. Manitou Lake

If you are a nature person and find solace in natural beauty visit the Manitou Lake. You can enjoy many activities there. One such famous activity isย floating in the Dead Sea.ย  In addition, these activities are free of cost for people staying at their resorts. So, if you love experiencing activities indoors, this is your go-to place. The ranch is open all year, but there are additional lodging options in the historicย Arts & Craftsman ranch houseย during the summer months.

11. Wanuskewin Heritage Park

This park can be considered an old park since it is acknowledged that visitors gather from all over the globe to visit Waneskewin Heritage Park. This activity is now being carried away for overย 60 centuries.ย Besides its ancient features, this park is now considering being included in the UNESCO World Heritage Sites. Visitors can hike aย 6 km trailย and participate in workshops to learn to build Beaded hoop earrings.

    Canada certainly is a GREAT country to travel in. While tough to attain for most โ€ฆ. A trip โ€œCoast to Coast to Castโ€ should be on every Canadians bucket list.
