Crowd Information

Due to its large size and small population of one million, crowds are rarely a concern in Saskatchewan.

Closure Information

Though some sites such as fishing camps and campgrounds close over the winter, the majority of places remain open year-round.

When to Save

The winter and shoulder seasons offer the best airfares, but other prices remain consistent the rest of the year.
