Enjoy Saskatchewan's beauty from rolling prairie hills, majestic sand dunes, forests filled with wild song, or lakes teaming with fishing opportunities that calm the soul and refresh the mind.
Calling all campers, water enthusiasts, hikers, bikers and tenters, the online reservations is now open for all seasonal campsites in Saskatchewan Provincial Parks. Reservations for nightly camping, camp-easy, group campsites and swimming lessons are available, with different locations available each day throughout the week. With no fee increases for park entry, swimming, and camping options this year, campers can continue to enjoy affordable camping vacations in 2024.
Booking a campsite is easy and can be done online through SaskParks.com. Campers are encouraged to set-up or log-in to their online account in advance, so that they can quickly identify their favourite campsites and start planning their trips on reservation launch day.
New features of the reservation site include improved group camping search functionality, enhanced recreation hall functionality and the ability to book a site at Porcupine Hills Provincial Park.
"We are thrilled to see the growing interest in our parks, reflected in the addition of new campsites across locations," Parks, Culture and Sport Minister Laura Ross said. "These expansions are a testament to the allure of our natural landscapes. With exciting events on the horizon, there's never been a better time to explore our parks and discover the beauty and adventure they have to offer."
New this year is the addition of 28 new seasonal sites across Buffalo Pound, Candle Lake, Echo Valley, Greenwater Lake and Meadow Lake Provincial Parks due to the seasonal camping program's popularity. Also new this year, Camp Easy tents at Cypress Hills will be replaced with yurts and a new pavilion will open for reservations at Rowan's Ravine.
Exciting events and programming await visitors, including Canada Day celebrations, Summer Cinema, Sask Express, Back in the Boreal at Meadow Lake, Trade Days at Fort Carlton, Cannington Fair at Cannington Mannor, Wind and Waves at Rowan's Ravine, Harmony at the Heron at Great Blue Heron and many others.
