Visit Saskatchewan Provincial Parks

Consider coming to a provincial park to spend the day, have a picnic, hike the trails, or organize water activities. Pack Frisbees, footballs, soccer balls or baseballs for an afternoon of games or take part in any of the organized interpretive activities.
Learn to Fish
Learn to Fish return for a second season this summer at six popular fishing destinations across the province. This program is designed to introduce fishing to beginners over the age of 10 and to encourage proper fishing practices.
The program will begin with a teaching portion with an experienced angler introducing participants to the following topics: fish identification, tackle and accessories, rules and regulations, how to cast, proper fish handling and much more! The teaching portion will be followed by a hands-on casting lesson, and once participants have the basics of casting they will have the chance to try their luck at catching a fish! Program participants are not required to own/bring along equipment as everything will be provided.
