Hiking
Geocaching
While Saskatchewan provincial parks
offer a plethora of exciting things to do,
spending time in nature is at the centre of
a park experience. Almost all of
Saskatchewan’s provincial parks have
hiking trails – from easy walks for your
whole family to intense hikes suitable for
the seasoned athlete.
Geocaching is a fun, family-friendly outdoor
pastime that is equal parts scavenger
hunt, hike, outdoor adventure and gift
exchange with a technological twist.
Outdoor
Adventure
Caches can be found throughout the
provincial park system. The name and
coordinates of each cache are listed on
the geocaching.com website. You
can find our cache listing page by
searching for caches registered to
the username SK Parks. If you
forget to load this information into
your GPS unit before you leave
home, just inquire at the park
office once you arrive.

so much to experience...
Trans Canada Trail
The Trans Canada Trail passes
through eight provincial parks,
providing a wide range of hiking
opportunities. The trail enters on the
east side of the province at Duck
Mountain and leaves at Cypress Hills,
on the Alberta Border.
Boreal Trail
In 2011, the Boreal Trail opened in
Meadow Lake Provincial Park. It is the
only destination backpacking trail in the
Saskatchewan provincial park system,
spanning an epic 120 km in an east-west
traverse of the park.
The Boreal Trail system offers many types
of hiking adventures: multi-day trips,
backcountry camping and a variety of
start and end points. Depending on your
skill and fitness level, you may choose to
hike the trail in stages as a leisurely stroll
or all at once from end-to-end.
The system of marked trails links eight of
our existing front-country campgrounds
as well as provides backcountry camping
opportunities. This trail system will take
you through a variety of ecosystems
within the boreal forest and into some
sections of Meadow Lake Provincial Park
that most people do not see.
If you plan to stay overnight on the trail,
please register at one of the campground
offices. There is an $11 per-tent, pernight camping fee for backcountry
campsites, which can be paid at the point
of registration. GPS tracks of the trail are
also available for downloading.
Remember to leave no trace – pack it in
and pack it out.
Further information and geocaching rules
and how to select your first cache can be
found on www.saskparks.net. When
you find a cache, post a message to our
SaskParks Facebook page and tell us
about your experience. Happy treasure
hunting!
Ziplining
Fly through the gorgeous lodgepole pine
forest in Cypress Hills Interprovincial
Park. Cypress Hills Eco-Adventures Ltd.
has created the first “zipline canopy tour”
in Saskatchewan. Trained tour guides will
take you on a two hour tour that will
literally give you a bird’s eye view…
45 feet above the forest floor! In addition
to ziplining, try the climbing wall or test
your balance on the slacklines.
