Explore Saskatchewan This Fall

Summer isn’t over. Even as the days get shorter and the mercury begins to dip. There is still plenty of time left on the calendar to get out and explore the province of Saskatchewan and the beautiful landscapes. Fall is the time for the golden sunsets, fall colours and the rich bounty of farmers markets across the province. Get behind the wheel of your Ford and give your friends and family an autumn experience far greater than the pumpkin spice latte.

Lumsden may be small but don’t judge a book by its cover. This small town nestled in the Qu'Appelle Valley is growing and bursting at the seams with hospitality, good food, and country comfort. Spending the day? Local shopping is a must as are the cafes, Last Mountain Distillery, and the to-die-for cuisine at the Lumsden Valley Resort. While it’s a hop, skip and a jump away from Meadow Lake, Lumsden is a great getaway for those passing through Saskatoon or Regina. This is the perfect trip for those looking to explore but wanting the comforts of the road.

If staying close to home is more your speed, take a day to explore the landscape at Meadow Lake Provincial Park. Spanning more than 1,600 kilometres and featuring more than 20 lakes, rivers and streams, Meadow Lake Provincial Park is one of the largest provincial parks in Canada.  Take in the colours, the sunsets, hiking, and more in this beautiful park that’s open all year round. With over 12 campgrounds, it’s easy to stay the night, the weekend or more. Pack your woollies!

From museums to galleries, hiking to theatre, there is more than something for everyone in Prince Albert Saskatchewan. The downtown walking tours teach you about the rich prairie history or take time to enjoy the Mann Art Gallery, a small museum that works to showcase local artists, contemporary as well as historical pieces, and art from across the province. The perfect small town getaway, Prince Albert is also home to a beautiful golf course, restaurants and more. Not ready to pack up the Focus for a weekend retreat?
