Provincial parks to undergo updates and upgrades

Saskatchewan’s provincial parks, including many here in southern Saskatchewan, are getting a bit of a facelift for the 2022-2023 season.

There are planned boat launch updates at Douglas Provincial Park, as well as water system upgrades at Saskatchewan Landing and Moose Mountain Provincial Parks.

This year’s projects include:

  • New campground service centres at Saskatchewan Landing and Duck Mountain Provincial Parks;
  • Electrical service improvements at Greenwater Lake and Moose Mountain Provincial Parks;
  • Campground development and lagoon upgrades at Meadow Lake Provincial Park;
  • Water system upgrades at Saskatchewan Landing and Moose Mountain Provincial Parks;
  • Planned boat launch upgrades at Douglas Provincial Park; and
  • Major road improvements at The Battlefords Provincial Park.

The projects completed last year include:

  • Four new day-use pavilions at Echo Valley, Buffalo Pound, Blackstrap and Pike Lake Provincial Parks, offering space for group or family gatherings and events such as weddings or market gardens. Located near urban centres, the pavilions are accessible to both day visitors and overnight campers;
  • Redeveloped Pine Hill Campground at Cypress Hills Interprovincial Park with 42 electric sites, 18 full service sites, tenting sites and a service centre;
  • New Saskatchewan Landing Provincial Park Visitor Reception Centre with a more central location and increased accessibility for visitors; and
  • New Buffalo Pound Provincial Park Visitor Centre that will host interpretive programming and exhibits and will serve as a meeting space for visitors with potential for a future coffee shop or cafe.
