Short drive South of saskatoon. Well marked. Spend the day walking the trails. Spring is awesome with the flowers blooming. Always critters running around. Take water and a snack. Decent walking shoes.

Longest bike path in Canada. Nice walk along the river with plenty to see: wildlife watching, like pelicans and Canadian geese, full of monuments and historic buildings, has outdoor playground and recreational gym facilities and kayak rental, tennis courts and plenty of cafes, galleries and shops with outdoor sitting to enjoy the Meewasin masterpiece landscaping that makes it pleasant for the eye at any time of the year. An annual Saskatchewan marathon path.

Cranberry Flats Conservation Area

Reviewed By viktoriyak912 - Saskatoon, Canada

Great trail 15 minutes outside of Saskatoon. Perfect spot to go for a walk and enjoy sunsets. There is also a fascinating scientific excursions for children and explorers where a guide tells you about local SK nature and its inhabitants. Good for both summer and winter walks, but make sure to have enough mosquito repellent in summer.

Pike Lake Provincial Park

Reviewed By eigonosensay - Saskatoon, Canada

In fairly close proximity to Saskatoon, Pike Lake is a great place to spend a sunny summer day. If you have a kayak or canoe, it is ideal, or enjoy camping or the pool on site.
