Where to go
Blackstrap Provincial Park
This park has two unique geographical features that make for incredible recreation opportunities: a manmade lake and the manmade Blackstrap Ski Hill, built for the 1971 Canada Winter Games. The lake is surrounded by sand and grass, so it's perfect for a day outside, while a boat launch encourages activities on the water. With lots of trails and serviced campsites, this is a fun spot to explore anytime.
Pike Lake
Popular with families (especially those with younger kids), this park just south of Saskatoon offers grassy lawns, tennis and beach volleyball courts, kayaking, playgrounds, an outdoor pool complete with a waterslide, and a bunch of interpretive trails. Both campsites and cabin rentals are available.
Fort Carlton Provincial Park
History buffs love exploring Fort Carlton, which was first established in 1810 as part of the area's growing fur trade, and offers reenactments of early life in the province. Aside from the fort, the provincial park features hiking trails and a small campground for overnight stays, plus surrounding lakes and trails for even more adventures.
When to go
The best time to visit Saskatoon is in the summer months, when the weather is pretty much guaranteed to be pleasant and tons of festivals take place all summer long. If you're a fine weather camper, the weather is usually good from mid-May through September, but camping in the prairies is possible all year-round.
