Explore the Land of the Living Skies, where an exciting mix of the “old west” and fantastic new frontiers await your visit. This is a place unlike any other, with a landscape that’s larger-than-life from southern prairies to northern boreal forest. Fish in one of 100,000 lakes or relax at a spa or lakeside resort. Golf at a selection of beautiful courses. Canoe clear waters or ride the range with real cowboys or help out on a farm. Relive our fascinating history and celebrate it with us at lively events and colourful festivals. Enjoy our cities and sample the amenities of urban live, with a wide range of shopping, and restaurants to suit every taste. Visit farmers’ markets, fowl suppers, rodeos, powwows and country fairs. Or perhaps try your luck at one of seven casinos in the province. Delight in our living skies and let Saskatchewan’s quiet stillness settle your soul.
There’s much to see and experience on your visit: vibrant cities rich with culture and the arts; captivating Aboriginal heritage; more golf courses per capita that anywhere else in Canada; and a proud history as home of the RCMP and the world-famous Snowbirds Aerobatics Team.
In Regina visit the new RCMP Heritage Centre which illustrates a distinctly Canadian story using state-of-the-art exhibits, multimedia technologies and engaging programming and tours. Be sure to catch the Heritage Precinct tour, regularly scheduled Sergeant Major’s Parade and the Sunset Retreat Ceremonies. To experience more of the RCMP’s history, take a trip to Fort Walsh National Historic Site, an early North West Mounted Police outpost in Cypress Hills Interprovincial Park.
If you are a TV fan you will enjoy a Sunday afternoon tour to Rouleau, a.k.a. “Dog River” for the ultimate “Corner Gas” experience and get a peek at what happens behind the scenes in this pretty rural community
Known far and wide as “The Friendly City”, Moose Jaw is just 45 minutes west of Regina. Relax in Temple Garden’s natural geothermal mineral water pool or step back in time with a guided tour of the Tunnels of Moose Jaw, experiencing the history behind Al Capone’s bootlegging operation or the life of early Chinese immigrants.
The South Saskatchewan River is the soul of Saskatoon, the “Bridge City”, and the banks are a popular venue to many festivals and events, as well as River Landing, the new shopping and entertainment complex. Explore this beautiful city by strolling the river walk, hiking 60 km of trails or by a peaceful and leisurely Shearwater Boat Tours cruise. Summertime events abound here from the renowned SaskTel Saskatchewan Jazz Festival to the popular Shakespeare on the Saskatchewan.
Dakota Dunes Casino, which opened in 2007, is located just 20 minutes south of Saskatoon on the Whitecap First Nations. This impressive facility with over 800,000 sq ft of gaming and entertainment space is located on a hill-top above the South Saskatchewan River, offering a panoramic view.
History buffs will be intrigued by Batoche National Historic Site and the story of Louis Riel and the 1885 Resistance, or by one of four Western Development Museums, located in Moose Jaw, North Battleford, Saskatoon and Yorkton, which provide a glimpse into the settlement history of western Canada.
Saskatchewan has something for every outdoor enthusiast. Thirty-four provincial parks offer a choice of wilderness, great recreation, and intriguing historic sites. Prince Albert National Park is a popular four-season destination, covering some 388,000 hectares of aspen parkland and boreal forest with some 1,500 lakes and streams. Grasslands National Park preserves one of Canada’s last remaining tracts of prairie grassland.
These are major events happening and reasons to come during the next three years.
