SASKATCHEWAN  >  CANADA


Canadese prairie provincie, waarvan het grootste deel van de bevolking in het zuidelijke deel van de provincie woont en leeft.

Saskatchewan is surrounded in the west by Alberta, in the north by the Northwest Territories, in the east by Manitoba, and in the south by the American states of Montana and North Dakota.

Moments you'll never forget. Canoe the historic Churchill River on a hot July day. Hike through the cool boreal forest on a misty morning. Ride on horseback across the open range. Spend a lazy day at the beach. Fly over unnamed lakes to legendary fly-in fishing camps. When you're in Saskatchewan, live every moment.
Over 100,000 lakes, some so crystal clear you can see fish at the bottom. The badlands of Big Muddy, Killdeer and Frenchman River. The highlands of Cypress Hills and Duck Mountain. The healing waters of Manitou Springs Mineral Spa. Every region is distinct in its landscape, culture, history and experience.

Regio's in Saskatchewan: East Central Region, Southeast Region, Southwest Region, The North and West Central Region

Hoofdstad van Saskatchewan: Regina.

 East Central Region  -  East Central Saskatchewan Tourism
From the Precambrian wilderness to the rolling prairie, encompassing natural beauty, exciting cities and fascinating communities, the East Central tourism region is a blend of cultures, attractions and great hospitality.
Highlights of this region include world renowned healing waters, churches painted in the tradition of the great European masters, fascinating historical sites, and culture at every turn. East Central has four provincial parks including Good Spirit Lake, Duck Mountain, Greenwater Lake and Wildcat Hill. Add to that regional and community parks, as well as superb golf courses.
 Southeast Region  -  South East Saskatchewan's Tourism Region
To travel south east Saskatchewan is to wend your way through a varied landscape that includes an ancient valley of lakes, unusual rock formations, and a high country plateau of dense forest. Not a typical prairie, although the wide vistas of the southern grainbelt are very evident in the south east. But there is also the broad Qu'Appelle Valley, which extends right across the region with its rugged hills and fluted folds providing a stunning backdrop to lakes and parks.
In winter, snowcover provides ideal conditions for cross-country skiers and snowmobile enthusiasts who enjoy the relatively mild weather with which the southern part of the province is blessed.
Saskatchewan's Southeast Region is home to Canada's sunshine capital Estevan, which averages nearly seven hours of sunshine each and every day.
 Southwest Region  -  Southwest Saskatchewan Tourism
Southwest Saskatchewan comes alive in the summer months, from the pristine waters and beaches of Lake Diefenbaker to the towering lodgepole pines of Cypress Hills Interprovincial Park.
 The North  -  Northern Saskatchewan Tourism  -  Er valt altijd iets te ontdekken
Saskatchewan's Northern region is the province's largest tourism playground, offering over 200,000 sq. kilometers of four-season, non-stop fun! If you like snowmobiling, cross country skiing, snowshoeing, ice fishing, sightseeing, or just want to be someplace secluded with a fireplace and hot tub, you've come to the right place!
Hundreds of kilometers of groomed snowmobile trails will take you through snow-laden pines, and dogsleds wind their way through the boreal forest and over frozen lakes, under the glow of the Northern Lights. Groomed cross-country ski trails take off in all directions, crossing silent, snow-laden forests, frozen lakes and gently rolling hills. Winter festivals and snowmobile rallies add to the enjoyment of the season.
 West Central Region  -  Saskatchewan West Central Tourism
From the quiet meander of the Battle, to the mighty forces of the South and North Saskatchewan, rivers form an important part of the landscape here. Crucial to the fur trade and the province's early development, these moving waters and their shores provide some of Saskatchewan's most beautiful scenery.
Natural areas abound, including outdoor playgrounds like Jackfish Lake, bordered by The Battlefords Provincial Park and other resort communities. Near Manito Lake, go on guided horseback trips through a vast area of unspoiled prairie, hills and rugged lakeshores in the Great Manito Sand Hills.
This is also the land of Louis Riel, who led his Metis people in an armed uprising against the Canadian government in 1885. Batoche National Historic Site preserves the memory of Riel and his cause.
Events ranging from fishing tournaments and country fairs, to sports days and rodeos with chuckwagons and chariot races add to the region's strong heritage and culture. Don't miss the annual Goose Festival in Kindersley in September. Or, for something on the unusual side, check out the greyhound races at Pilot Butte, the "bones" tournament in Macklin, or the derby at Eston, where the race contestants are gophers!
