Cypress Hills Interprovincial Park’s Centre Block rises high above the surrounding plains, a highland of lodgepole pine, white spruce, and fescue meadows in a landscape you won’t find anywhere else between the Rockies and Labrador. Here you’ll find full-service campgrounds, hiking trails, and even a Dark Sky Preserve, blending modern amenities with the quiet of forest and grassland. With its mix of easy walks, quiet picnic spots, and expansive views, the Centre Block is the perfect base for both relaxed days and full-on outdoor adventure.

The west block of Cypress Hills Interprovincial Park is an expansive, forested highland plateau that spans southwestern Saskatchewan and southeastern Alberta. This region is known for its beautiful mix of pine and aspen trees, rolling hills, and deep valleys. Unlike the surrounding prairie, the higher elevation contributes to a cooler and more diverse climate, supporting a rich variety of wildlife, including mule deer, elk, and a wide range of bird species. There are breathtaking ridge-top views, peaceful woodland trails, beautiful lakes, and fantastic geological features, including cliffs and valleys shaped by centuries of erosion.

Wanuskewin Heritage Park, just outside Saskatoon, is a place where culture, history, and landscape intertwine. Its name, from the Cree word wânaskêwin, meaning “being at peace with oneself”, captures the spirit of this sacred site. Archaeological finds here trace nearly 6,000 years of life on the Northern Plains, making it one of Canada’s most significant heritage locations. Today, Wanuskewin serves as a gathering place for Indigenous ceremony, art, and storytelling, while also educating visitors about the deep connections between people and land. Recognized as a National Historic Site, it is now pursuing UNESCO World Heritage designation, a milestone that would mark the fist such designation in Saskatchewan.

The Trans Canada Trail spans more than 28,000 kilometres across Canada, linking cities, rural areas, and wilderness regions from coast to coast. It combines greenways, roadways, waterways, and backcountry routes, forming the longest recreational trail system in the world. This section through Kingsway Park is a smooth, multi-use pathway that winds between open green space and the Moose Jaw River valley. It’s easy to access with gentle grades, making it ideal for walking, running, and cycling. With river views, mature trees, and connections to nearby park paths, this loop is an enjoyable urban link within the larger national trail network.

This trail is a relatively easy 2-kilometer loop that follows the shoreline of Waskesiu Lake, with views of King Island in the distance, before turning upstream along Mud Creek. As you wander through the mixed forest of spruce and aspen, you'll see plenty of wildlife, and in spring, spawning fish draw black bears to the water, adding a chance for memorable wildlife sightings. There are interpretive signs along the way that highlight the area's history, including that of the First Peoples, local wildlife, and past community activities. It's a lovely path that's perfect for a leisurely stroll to enjoy the peaceful scenery of the park's lakeshore and forest.

Circle South Beach is a sandy shoreline looking out on two sandbars on the east side of the South Saskatchewan River, just next to Diefenbaker Park and the Nutana Cemetery. On warm summer days, this beach is popular with sunbathers and picnickers.

Pine Island is a small, tree-covered island with a boardwalk loop, accessible by Pine Island Bridge. The island is a mix of urban architecture and nature. There is an artificial waterfall on the boardwalk that visitors can walk under.

The Motherwell Homestead is an impressive national historic site near Abernethy, Saskatchewan, established in 1966 in honour of William Richard Motherwell, the province's first Minister of Agriculture.

The property is also home to farm animals such as pigs, cows and chickens, which bring authentic farm life to life. You can take part in exciting tours and activities and immerse yourself in the fascinating world of homestead life in the early 20th century.
