Welcome to Saskatchewan Provincial Parks

Camping at Echo ValleyWhether you are planning your vacation or just looking for that perfect trail for an invigorating hike, you will be sure to find it here.  Check here regularly for updated news, developments, and happenings in Saskatchewan Provincial Parks:

Reserve-a-Site 

Saskatchewan provincial parks Reserve-a-Site application forms are now available online.  Click here to visit the Reserve-a-Site page and to access the Make a Reservation Link.  

Demand for the Reserve-a-Site program is at an all-time high - and growing.  As a result, reservable electric sites at many parks during the peak camping period of late June through to mid-August are near or are already at capacity.  Reservations for electric sites are more readily available early or later in the season.  Non-electric sites are still readily available at most locations.

The status of reservation availability can be found on the chart on the Reserve-a-Site Applications page.  First-come, first-served sites are also available for campers who are unable to secure a reservation or have not yet planned their vacation.  Before arriving at the park please call ahead to check availability of the first come, first served sites.

Campers awaiting confirmation on a reservation request are advised that due to an extremely high volume of requests at a number of parks, response times vary and may be an additional several weeks before confirmation is received.  Our sincere apologies for the delay.
