2012/2013 Southern Saskatchewan Vacation Guide 5

Southern Saskatch 

Saskatchewan is the heart of 

Canada! Planted proudly midway 

between the Atlantic and Pacific, it’s 

unique for many reasons: hard to 

spell, but easy to draw! Some people 

think it’s “flat as a platter”, yet it’s 

where you’ll find the highest point in 

Canada between the Rocky Mountains 

and Labrador! 

Although it’s one of only two provinces 

(Alberta is the other) with no maritime 

coast, Saskatchewan has more than 

100,000 lakes, and has produced 

more than its share of expert sailors! 

There’s no better place to experience 

the many different aspects of this 

unique region than in southern 

Saskatchewan, the province’s ‘fun 

zone’. 

You’ll find exactly what you’re seeking 

-- rest, relaxation, fun or excitement – 

whether you’re here for an overnight 

visit or a full-blown vacation. 

If outdoor nature experiences are what 

you’re looking for, you’ll find lots of 

traditional camping/fishing/hiking 

opportunities, especially in our many 

provincial parks such as Cypress Hills 

Interprovincial Park, on the 

Saskatchewan/Alberta border or others 

like Moose Mountain or Katepwa Point 

Provincial Parks (tpcs.gov.sk.ca/parks). 

You’ll also marvel at Grasslands 

National Park, and Old Man On His 

Back Prairie and Heritage Conservation 

Area. 

If stargazing is your outdoor activity of 

choice, the Dark Sky Preserves in the 

Cypress Hills Inter-Provincial Park and 

Grasslands National Park offer some of 

the darkest skies in Canada. Whether 

on your own, at a Star Party or 

observatory, the night skies here are 

spectacular and awe inspiring. 

Want to see fascinating flora and 

fauna? The Great Sand Hills near 

Sceptre and the Cypress Hills offer 

eco-systems very different than the 

surrounding prairies. Travel to 

Grasslands National Park to explore 

the mixed grass prairie up close. 


ewan 

Another attractive feature of 

Saskatchewan is its abundant and 

healthy wildlife population. If you’d like 

to see burrowing owls, sage grouse, 

black-footed ferrets, elk and whitetailed 

deer, just to name a few, head 

for southern Saskatchewan – and don’t 

forget your camera! 

If your idea of fun involves something 

more active than bird or wildlife 

watching, perhaps golf is your thing. 

Southern Saskatchewan boasts more 

than 80 excellent golf courses 

designed to please all levels of 

enthusiasts. 

Challenge your golf skills at Long Creek 

Golf and Country Club, set into a valley 

east of Avonlea, or take a swing at the 

9-hole course at Katepwa Beach Golf 

Club, and enjoy the stunning beauty of 

the Qu’Appelle Valley. 

Active outdoor experiences are 

everywhere in the southern part of 

Saskatchewan! Check out spots for 

biking, hiking, windsurfing, watersliding, 

horseback riding, and kiteboarding. 

Join in a game of paintball, experience 

a climbing wall, try out a slackline, or fly 

through the treetops on a zipline. These 

are only a few of the wide variety of 

activities available to provide new and 

exciting experiences for visitors and 

residents alike. 

And in several parts of the province, 

you can enjoy numerous winter 

outdoor experiences, such as 

wintertubing, snowboarding, cross 

country or downhill skiing, or sleigh 

rides – all part of the winter fun in 

Saskatchewan! 

Festivals and special events often linger 

in the memories for a long time after 

the vacation is over. Who could forget 

the “Dickens Village Festival”, held in 

Carlyle the first weekend of every 

December, when the townspeople 

recreate quaint Victorian England? 

A definite high point in Moose Jaw’s 

year is the “Festival of Words” in July, 

attracting hundreds of writers and 

literature lovers of all genres. The 

communities of Consul, Robsart and 

Eastend have joined forces to present 

the 3-day “South West Quest for Art & 

History”, (July 20-22, 2012) which 

includes a self-guided tour to meet 

artists, view their art, experience music, 

history, films from the Yorkton Film 

Festival, a parade and fireworks 

(including your own hand-crafted 

luminary!) 

Traditional western prairie festival and 

event fare includes a variety of rodeos, 

both professional and neighborhood, 

like the “Reno Rodeo” in Consul, or the 

“Long Creek CCA Rodeo” in Radville. 

This part of the Canadian west is an 

unforgettable treasure trove for anyone 

who is interested in, or fascinated by, 

any or all kinds of culture and history. 

Throughout southern Saskatchewan,

Southern Saskatch 

there are large and small museums, 

many devoted to the intriguing and 

entertaining mementos and memories 

of the original residents and early 

settlers of what is now our province. 

140,000 visitors each year explore the 

Royal Saskatchewan Museum in 

Regina to discover the “big picture” of 

the natural, geologic, and First Nations 

history of Saskatchewan. Many visitors 

take a trip through the history of 

transportation at Moose Jaw’s Western 

Development Museum to discover 

some of the ways that humankind has 

overcome the challenges of space and 

distance. 

Investigate the early years of prairie 

agriculture at the Motherwell 

Homestead National Historic Site, or 

uncover the early days of prairie 

manufacturing industry at the Claybank 

Brick Plant National Historic Site. 

The proud history of the North West 

Mounted Police/Royal Canadian 

Mounted Police is brought to life at 

Fort Walsh and the Cypress Hills 

Massacre Historic Site, as well as the 

RCMP Heritage Centre in Regina, 

where hands-on displays encourage 

families to find out more about the 

honour of the force. 

As another tribute to our province’s 

proud history, Southern Prairie Railway 

will be “Pulling the Past Into the 

Future” when they launch 

Saskatchewan’s first and only Tourist 

Train in Ogema during early summer of 

2012! 

Saskatchewan has a rich and diverse 

history of achievement in the arts, 

which means a wealth of galleries, 

literary and performance creations, 

and unique memorabilia to take home 

as a tangible memory of an 

unforgettable vacation experience. 

In many of the galleries and studios, 

you may see the artists at work on 

their latest creations. A number of the 

venues, like the Sagebrush Studios 

near Leader, and Parsons-Dietrich 

Pottery in Moose Jaw, are located in 

restored churches. 

Throughout the southern part of the 

province, galleries such as the Yvette 

Moore Gallery in Moose Jaw, the 

Grasslands Gallery in Val Marie, and 

the Letterbox Gallery & Gifts in 

Lumsden, display impressive 

examples of local and regional work. 

One of the chief delights of traveling to 

a new place, whether it’s for an 

afternoon, a weekend, or a whole 

summer, is sampling the culinary 

delights and specialties of the area! 

Southern Saskatchewan has many 

tasty treats in store for hungry 

travelers. 


ewan 

Many of the cafés, restaurants, diners, 

eateries or dining spots have built a 

solid reputation over the years. Patrons 

from near and far swear by the menus 

of places like the Rockin’ Horse 

Cookhouse & Bar, Redmond House 

B&B and Dining Establishment, the 

Star Café & Grill in Maple Creek, or 

Lumsden’s Brickhouse Bistro. 

Others travel equally long distances to 

sample the specialties of the Happy 

Nun Café in Forget, Hollyhock Market 

Natural Foods in Mortlach, or Café de 

Paris in Gravelbourg. 

And if you’re interested in a closer look 

at how delights like wine get from vine 

to table, be sure to visit the Cypress 

Hills Vineyard & Winery, near Maple 

Creek, where you can relax in their 

bistro café after viewing the process, 

tasting the product, and inspecting the 

vineyard gift shop. 

There are many other gift shops in 

southern Saskatchewan of course, 

along with fascinating antique marts 

and myriad boutique and mall outlets. 

Check out Spruce Creek Antiques & 

Collectables near Burstall; in Swift 

Current, visit Kokopelli’s: Purveyors of 

Neat Stuff (including curios, crystals 

and gift items), and Et Cetera Et 

Cetera, a gift boutique that’s described 

as “a gift boutique that defies 

description”! 

Distinctly unique Saskatchewan gifts 

are specialties of Bend in the River 

Berries in Moose Jaw, and Prairie 

Cherry Corner (Over the Hill certified 

organic orchards) in Lumsden. 

Many times, half the fun of traveling is 

deciding where to spend the night. 

That’s certainly the case when you’re 

visiting southern Saskatchewan, 

whether it’s for a quick overnighter, a 

weekend getaway or a major family 

holiday (maybe even with the horse or 

dogs!) Whoever you are, wherever 

you’re coming from, and however near 

or far you may be going -- we’ve got 

you covered! 

If you’re a fan of Bed & Breakfasts, we 

have a wide range of B&Bs, each with 

their own distinct style. Sleep in an 

authentic log cabin, a tipi or teepee, a 

homesteader’s cabin or a two-storey 

Eaton’s catalogue house! Sleep close 

to the beach, on the banks of a river, 

or in the centre of the city action – your 

choice! 

If you’re planning to camp, tent or 

bring your RV, you’ll have a long and 

varied list of choices at provincial and 

regional parks and private venues, 

offering full hook-ups right down to 

back country camping – again, the 

choice is yours! 

Those who prefer to be pampered 

while on vacation will be delighted with 

the Temple Gardens Mineral Spa in 

Moose Jaw, a truly luxurious spa resort 

featuring Canada’s largest therapeutic 

Tunnels of Moose Jaw 


geo-thermal mineral water indoor/ 

outdoor rooftop pool. And for other 

‘big city style’ amenities, stay at least a 

night or two at the Bear Claw Casino & 

Hotel on the White Bear First Nation 

near Carlyle. You’ll find additional 

casino action at the Living Sky Casino 

in Swift Current, or at Casino Moose 

Jaw or Casino Regina. 

Visiting southern Saskatchewan is 

almost like taking a trip around the 

world, or a scamper back in time. And 

yet, when you’re in our ‘fun zone’, 

you’re never far from the warmth of 

small-town friendliness and big-city 

comforts and conveniences. 

Everything is an easy drive, to and 

from all the things you like best to see 

and do. 

Saskatchewan is the province that’s 

down to earth, where the sky’s the 

limit. And as we always say -- you 

CAN get here from there. No matter 

where “there” may be! 


Cypress Hills/Grassla 

Saskatchewan’s well-deserved tag 

line is “Land of Living Skies”, and 

anyone who has ever had an 

opportunity to watch and marvel at the 

constantly changing expanse of wide 

blue yonder knows how appropriate 

that catch phrase is. 

The Cypress Hills/Grasslands region 

satisfies just about everyone’s vision of 

the range country of the Old West. 

Under the never-ending variations of 

cloud and shadow are the softly rolling 

native grasslands, the rugged cliffs and 

deep coulees of our childhood dreams, 

where cattle and buffalo roamed and 

the winds blew unchecked from horizon 

to horizon, just as they did when the 

first explorers visited. 

Experience untouched prairie when you 

visit the Old Man On His Back Nature 

Conservancy, located southwest of 

Eastend. This 13,000 acre ranch is one 

of the best remaining examples of the 

semi-arid mixed grass prairie that 

originally covered more than 160 million 

acres. 

It’s a haven for wildlife rarely seen by 

most Canadians, including Plains 

Bison, Pronghorn Antelope, and 

imperiled species such as the 

Burrowing Owl and Ferruginous Hawk. 

An interpretive centre is open 

weekends from mid-May to the end of 

September. 

The land for this remarkable preserve 

was donated by best-selling author and 

playwright Sharon Butala and her 

cowboy-rancher husband Peter. Many 

visitors to the site take home their 

memories with a copy of Sharon’s 

book, “Old Man On His Back: Portrait 

of a Prairie Landscape” with stunning 

colour photographs by award-winning 

photographer Courtney Milne. 

Star gazers create their own 

unforgettable outdoor memories in the 

Cypress Hills/Grasslands area thanks to 

the clear night skies and absence of city 

light pollution. Each August, the 

Saskatoon and Regina Centres of the 

Royal Astronomical Society of Canada 

welcome visitors from around the world 

for the annual Saskatchewan Summer 

Star Party, with all-night-long observation 

sessions in the Centre Block of 

Cypress Hills Interprovincial Park and 

Dark Sky Preserve. Sky watching 

opportunities are also incredible at the 

Wilkinson Observatory, south of Eastend 

on Hwy #13, .as well as under the dark 

skies of Grasslands National Park. 

There’s no lack of daytime activities to 

enjoy in the area either. Overlooking the 

town of Eastend and the beautiful 

Frenchman River Valley, the T.rex 

Discovery Centre displays the working 

science of palaeontology and provides 

visitors the opportunity to participate in 

hands-on activities and view real fossils 

Or, take in the unusual and exciting 

activities offered by Cypress Hills Eco- 

Adventures Ltd. This new attraction 

takes you through the treetops of 

Cypress Hills on a zip line canopy tour! 

Once your feet touch back down, 

check out their climbing wall and 

slacklines to challenge your skills, 

strength and balance! 


nds 

All year round in southwest 

Saskatchewan, you’ll be entertained and 

intrigued by a wide range of festivals 

and events. Here, the arts meet the Old 

West, and cowboy poetry sessions are a 

feature of many formal or informal gettogethers. 

The Cowboy Poetry Gathering 

and Western Art & Gear Show in Maple 

Creek each September showcases 

talented poets and musicians from 

Canada and the USA. 

South of Maple Creek lies the 

community of Consul, home of the 

Reno Rodeo, described as the “Biggest 

Little Rodeo in the West!” This familyfriendly 

event each July has all the 

traditional wranglers’ events including a 

Kids’ Rodeo and Jackpot Team Roping. 

Each summer, Consul joins with the 

communities of Robsart and Eastend to 

present the 3-day South West Quest for 

Art & History, (July 20-22, 2012). Take a 

self-guided tour to meet artists, view 

their art, experience music, history, films 

from the Yorkton Film Festival, a parade 

and fireworks. 

The past of southwest Saskatchewan is 

lovingly preserved in many 

communities throughout the region. 

Nowhere is this more impressive than 

in Maple Creek, where the Jasper 

Cultural & Historical Centre occupies 

what was the town’s school in 1910. 

Built of locally-made bricks, with the 

original molded-tin ceilings, the 

museum features an actual railway 

station house, a one-room school, a 

collection of Heritage saddles and 

Charlie Russell prints. Maple Creek’s 

Oldtimers’ Museum welcomes summer 

visitors to displays of frontier artifacts, 

while they restore the log museum! 

In Shaunavon, which was a railroad 

centre in the early years of the last 

century, the Grand Coteau Heritage & 

Cultural Centre brings together the 

culture, arts, human and natural history 

of the area, and provides tourist 

information. 

From 1875 to 1883, the North West 

Mounted Police (now the Royal 

Canadian Mounted Police or RCMP) 

were headquartered at Fort Walsh in 

picturesque Battle Creek Valley. Today, 

this is part of the Fort Walsh & Cypress 

Hills Massacre National Historic Site. 

Through interactive programming in 

this living museum, visitors of all ages 

can experience the daily life of a 19th 

century Mountie. The lawless days of 

the whiskey trade which prompted the 

creation of Canada’s national police 

force have been recreated at the site 

of the infamous Cypress Hills 

Massacre, a haunting and significant 

milestone in our history. 

When you visit southwest 

Saskatchewan, there are memories 

aplenty to take back home with you. 

And if you’re looking for something 

more tangible to remind you of your 

vacation good times, you’ll be glad to 

find all kinds of gift shops and 

galleries throughout the area. In Val 

Marie, a few kilometers from the 

Canada/U.S. border, visit the 

Grasslands Gallery, marketing beautiful 

fine art and crafts inspired by the 

southwest. 

Fly Fishing in the Battle Creek 



Grasslands National Park is Canada’s first and largest 

preserve of prairie parkland. The West Block, centering on 

the Frenchman River Valley, is ideal for Front Country Hiking 

on built paths or marked routes. You may see or hear the 

rare Black-tailed Prairie Dog on your way! The East Block of 

the park, near Wood Mountain and home to the Killdeer 

Badlands, offers a challenge to even the most seasoned 

hiker, backcountry camping, as well as stunning and 

unexpected vistas. 

Vacationers, something like armies, tend to travel on their 

stomachs, so it’s fortunate there are so many culinary 

choices in southwest Saskatchewan! Just a few of the 

culinary delights are the Star Café & Grill, the Rockin’ Horse 

Cookhouse & Bar and Redmond House B & B & Dining 

Establishment in Maple Creek. The only commercial vineyard 

on the prairies is the Cypress Hills Vineyard and Winery, 

located just 20 km south of Maple Creek. The wine they 

make from homegrown and imported grapes, plus 

Saskatchewan berries and fruit, wins accolades and awards 

The area around Maple Creek offers many attractive options 

for day trippers or longer-term visitors, including a variety of 

accommodations ranging from cabins at Willowbend 

Campground or Eagle Valley Campground, to a Condo at 

Cypress Park Resort Inn. 

The Crossing Resort near Val Marie welcomes travelers with 

tents, RV units, or camper vans, and can provide two 

comfortable private suites. Rent a tipi for a truly unique 

holiday experience, or bring along your horse and take 

advantage of their “bed and bale” service. Or, also near Val 

Marie is Rosefield Church Guest House B&B. This selfcontained 

“little house on the prairie” is off the grid, 

generating its own wind and solar energy. 

Give yourself a treat and come visit the Cypress Hills/ 

Grasslands for an afternoon, a weekend or a full vacation. 

You’ll find that your childhood dreams of “the old wild west” 

really do exist -- and they’re waiting for you in southwest 

Saskatchewan.

Great Sand Hills / 

Southwestern Saskatchewan is a 

land of the unexpected, with 

remarkable contrasts at every turn. 

Within easy driving distance, you can 

go from vast expanses of prairie 

grassland to gently rolling parkland 

dotted with brush and trees, from busy 

modern cities to friendly and welcoming 

towns and villages, from breathtaking 

expanses of sand dunes or hills to 

incredibly beautiful river valleys and 

some of the finest of this province’s 

more than 100,000 lakes! 

In Canada’s centennial year, 1967, the 

massive earthen Gardiner Dam was 

built across the South Saskatchewan 

River to create Lake Diefenbaker, the 

largest man-made lake in the province. 

More than 800 km. of sandy shoreline 

ensure many opportunities for 

recreation on the water. World-class fish 

have been pulled out of this popular 

lake: many species of game fish are 

just waiting for your hook! 

Saskatchewan is home to some of the 

best competitive fishing events in 

Canada. Check out the annual Lake 

Diefenbaker Walleye Classic, which is 

held in May, and the Saskatchewan 

Landing International, held in July. 

Several other local fishing derbies are 

organized throughout the year, 

including ice-fishing events when the 

lake freezes over. 

Whether you’re fishing, sailing, speed 

boating, jet skiing, windsurfing or 

canoeing, you’ll find full-service marinas 

at Saskatchewan Landing, Elbow and 

Riverhurst for all your boating needs. 

There are lots of dry-land opportunities 

for relaxation as well. Near Aylesbury, in 

the picturesque Arm River Valley, Trails 

End Guest Ranch offers cowboy 

adventures, trail and wagon rides, 

hiking, and riding lessons, along with 

modern air-conditioned motel-style 

cabins. 

The Chaplin Nature Centre, located on 

the Trans-Canada Highway near the 

town of Chaplin, is a world-class facility 

showcasing more than 30 species of 

shorebirds. The 2012 Chaplin Shorebird 

Festival will take place June 8 & 9. 

The Harbor Golf Club & Resort has an

Big Muddy 

No trip to southern Saskatchewan is 

complete without a visit to “The Big 

Muddy”. This southern Saskatchewan 

treasure, rich with history and 

recreation opportunities, is located 

midway between Alberta and Manitoba, 

right against the Canadian/American 

border. 

This extraordinary and remote area, 

part of ancient glacial channel, was 

attractive to early ranchers and settlers. 

Its rugged landscape also attracted 

refugees like Sitting Bull, as well as 

horse thieves, robbers, and 

bootleggers. 

Travelers have a wide range of options 

for experiencing this unique region. 

Wood Mountain Regional Park, situated 

amid rolling hills in the heart of ranch 

country, features the Old Post NWMP 

site, Sitting Bull monument and other 

amenities. Near LaFleche, Thompson 

Lake Regional Park offers campsites 

and facilities for swimming, boating, 

fishing, golf, and family recreation. 

In the Rockglen district, you’ll enjoy a 

truly different vacation experience at the 

Effie Mattson Memorial Nature Walk & 

Archaeological Centre. Discover semiarid 

plant species, native animals, First 

Nations artifacts, a paleontological site, 

and a regional diorama. 

A variety of festivals and events 

throughout the Big Muddy will also 

provide out-of-the-ordinary vacation 

experiences. Culture, heritage and 

spirituality blend at the annual Summer 

Solstice Festival d’eté in Gravelbourg 

(June 22-24, 2012), where you can 

experience a weekend of art, music, 

dance, literature, drama, international 

cuisine, children’s activities and 

workshops. For a unique outdoor 

musical experience, take in the 2nd 

Annual Wood Mountain Folk Music 

Festival (August 24-25, 2012) at the 

Mergel Ranch Campgrounds. 

Thousands of people gather in 

Mortlach on the first Saturday in July 

every year (July 7 in 2012) for the 

Mortlach Saskatoon Berry Festival, with 

great entertainment for the entire family, 

special events, a parade, and of 

course, Saskatoon berries! In 

Bengough, the Gateway Festival (July 


27-29, 2012) is a celebration of folk/ 

roots music and culture with something 

for everyone. Camping spots are 

available; call ahead at 306-268-2909. 

On Saturday, June 9, 2012, take in the 

8th annual Arts in the Park Festival in 

Rockglen. At Wood Mountain Regional 

Park, the 122nd Wood Mountain 

Stampede, Canada’s oldest 

continuous rodeo will take place from 

July 6-8, 2012. 

Several truly indulgent options await 

you in Moose Jaw. Choose from one of 

the city’s many spas – perhaps the 

Sahara Spa, across from beautiful 

Crescent Park in the historic CNR 

station, offering the world’s most 

traditional forms of spa treatments. Or 

try the Hibiscus Sun Spa and Boutique, 

Purely Pleasure Salon, Wrapture Day 

Spa & Salon, and the renowned Temple 

Gardens Mineral Spa. 

If you’re eager to tour the Big Muddy 

Badlands and explore Butch Cassidy’s 

Outlaw Trail, there are tours by van, or 

private guided tours in your own 

vehicle. Many of the sites are on private 

land and accessible only on a guided 

tour which leaves from Coronach. 

The St. Victor Petroglyphs Provincial 

Park contains one of Saskatchewan’s 

most fascinating mysteries. Located 

just a short drive northwest of Willow 

Bunch, these prehistoric carvings come 

from an unknown pre-contact culture. 

At the Sukanen Ship Pioneer Village and 

Museum, 8 miles south of Moose Jaw, 

40 acres of authentic pioneer and 

historical buildings and artifacts are 

lovingly displayed by volunteers from 

May to September each year. Visit the 

childhood homestead of John G. 

Diefenbaker, Canada’s 13th Prime 

Minister, or see the “Sontiainen”, the 

43-foot ship hand-built in the 1930s in 

the middle of the prairie by Tom 

Sukanen, to sail home to Finland. 

Other forms of transportation are 

commemorated in Moose Jaw at the

Heritage … high on the Wood River 


Qu’Appelle Valley 

Many things about Saskatchewan 

are often a big surprise to 

travelers who come from “away” to visit 

us for the first time -- they don’t expect 

this prairie province to have more than 

100,000 lakes, magnificent forests 

or respectable ranges of hills with 

the highest point between the Rocky 

Mountains and Labrador. 

There are other unexpected things 

as well, especially in the south! Our 

plains are often thought of as being 

flat, unbroken stretches of prairie with 

nothing to distract the traveler from 

keeping right on toward the horizon! 

That idea comes to a screeching halt 

when the weary wayfarer discovers 

the Qu’Appelle Valley, stretched 

seductively out from east to west 

across the lower part of the province. 

It’s one of the most attractive and 

most popular playgrounds you’ll find 

anywhere, dotted with lakes and 

sheltered by treed hills both summer 

and winter. The Qu’Appelle River 

system is one of the major continental 

waterways that served as a highway 

and corridor into the Great Plains and 

today still attracts travelers from near 

and far. 

Whatever the time of year, there are 

recreation opportunities galore for 

families or individual vacationers 

looking for rest and relaxation -- or for 

excitement and enjoyment! During 

summers in the Qu’Appelle Valley, 

Explore Sports is dedicated to helping 

everyone enjoy kiteboarding and stand 

up paddling safely with a maximum 

of fun. You can also delight in hiking, 

golfing, swimming and other water 

sports. 

For recreational activities you may not 

have tried before, visit Legends Are 

Made At Katepwa near Indian Head on 

the south shore of Katepwa Lake -- this 

eco-friendly company rents canoes, 

kayaks and pedal boats for enjoyable 

exercise on the water. 

In late summer and autumn, Pumpkin 

Hollow Corn Maze, Family Farm & Fall 

Festival in Lumsden has “Memories in 

the Making” with multiple corn mazes, 

a Hay Bale Slide, Saskatchewan’s only 

Jumping Pillow, and a one-of-a-kind 

annual Halloween party, among many 

other attractions. 

Ravine Adventures in Abernethy 

provides year-round adventure 

excitement, including a 10 foot bubble 

ball, mud pit, and pedal go-karts in 

the summer. In the winter, try snow 


tubing topped off with a cozy evening 

by the fire. You can also go ice fishing, 

snowmobiling, or cross-country skiing. 

Mission Ridge Winter Park in Fort 

Qu’Appelle offers ten dynamic ski runs, 

a high calibre Terrain Park, and two 

bunny hills for all levels of skiers and 

boarders. 

The Qu’Appelle Valley is the perfect 

spot for Festivals of all sorts. The 

premiere event is undoubtedly the 

annual Craven Country Jamboree 

(July 12-15, 2012), the longest-running 

multi-day music festival in Canada. For 

a little folk music fix prior to your main 

course of country, visit “All Folk’d Up” 

in Montmartre (“Paris of the Prairies”), 

their popular annual folk music festival 

(July 6-8, 2012). 

The province’s capital city of Regina, 

honoured with the Latin title for 

“Queen”, is technically included in 

the Qu’Appelle Valley region. It’s a 

wonderful spot to experience the arts, 

culture and history that this remarkable 

province has contributed to the fabric 

of Canada. 

The Royal Saskatchewan Museum 

displays extensive collections 

dedicated to Saskatchewan’s natural 

and geological history and the First 

Nations’ cultures, past and present. 

The Government House Museum 

and Heritage Property, where the 

province’s Lieutenant Governors once 

lived, takes you back in time to the 

years when the manner of governing 

a vast area of western and northern 

Canada was being decided upon. 

The nearby RCMP Heritage Centre 

features state-of-the-art exhibits, 

multimedia technologies, fascinating 

programming, and tours that breathe 

life into the remarkable story of the 

Mounties and their accomplishments 

to “Maintain the Right”! 

In the eastern expanses of the 

Qu’Appelle Valley, you’ll find 

fascinating glimpses of history both 

past and present. Near the community 

of Esterhazy, the Kaposvar Historic 

Site preserves artifacts and buildings, 

including the Kaposvar Roman 

Catholic church, honoring early 

Hungarian settlement. Modern day 

accomplishment is honored at the 

Saskatchewan Potash Interpretive 

Centre, where intriguing interactive 

displays and exhibits explain the 

evolution of the potash industry from 

early mechanical mining to today’s 

high-tech methods. 

On the outskirts of historically rich 

and picturesquely named Indian 

Head, you’ll see a unique and famed

Bell Barn - Photo Credit: Tourism Saskatchewan/Gerard Makuch 

Letterbox Gallery & Gifts in Lumsden 

features Saskatchewan artists and 

artisans whose creations clearly 

demonstrate the “Wow!” factor. In 

Lebret, The Little Glass Hut welcomes 

art-loving travelers. This quaint little 

house is both a studio and retail 

outlet, so you can watch the genesis 

of unique stained glass pieces, then 

browse the works of talented local and 

Canadian artists. 

landmark , the Indian Head Bell Barn. 

Built of fieldstone in 1882, it has been 

restored and rebuilt as a perennially 

popular tourist attraction. Another 

tourist favorite in the Qu’Appelle 

Valley is Motherwell Homestead 

National Historic Site, near Abernethy. 

Costumed guides provide a living 

glimpse of the lifestyle of the early 

20th century, and the life and career 

of pioneer farmer/politician W.R. 

Motherwell. 

A “blast from the past” is available to 

residents and visitors alike in Wolseley, 

named “One of Canada’s Prettiest 

Towns”. It’s also the home of one of 

Canada’s last remaining authentic 

drive-in theatres! From spring through 

autumn each year, the Twi-Light Drivein 

Theatre screens the latest movies for 

carfuls of nostalgic viewers -- “just like 

drive-ins used to!” 

Wolseley also delights history buffs 

with its classic 1906 Town Hall 

and Opera House, and a famed 

swinging bridge that attracts both 

daring pedestrians and discerning 

photographers. 

To feed the physique as well as the 

artistic soul while travelling through 

the Qu’Appelle Valley, check out some 

of the best-known and most mouthwatering 

places to chow down! In 

Lumsden, pay a visit to the Brickhouse 

Bistro, with an extensive family menu 

and some quirky extras like caramel 

apples! At Katepwa Beach Resort 

Hotel, try either or both Sandpipers’ 

Restaurant and the Main Beach Bar & 

Grill. Visit a while for the beautiful valley 

view, but stay a little longer for the 

excellent eatables! 

One of the best-kept secrets of the 

Qu’Appelle Valley is the Resort Village 

of Bird’s Point on Round Lake. There 

are lots of reasons to pay a visit, with 

campsites, cabin rental, a hotel, mini 

golf, outdoor adventure areas and 

picnic spots. Make sure to stop by

Esterhazy of 

Potash Capital 

the World 

Esterhazy sits on a green plain 

between the Kaposvar and the 

Qu’Appelle valleys. Here you will be 

able to tour historic churches and visit 

pioneer landmarks. The town is named 

after a Hungarian aristocrat, Count Paul 

Esterhazy. He settled a community in 

this area in 1886 and the heritage site 

remains open for tours. 

Esterhazy is a growing town, a 

major service center in east central 

Saskatchewan, with great health care, 

affordable housing and year round 

recreation. 

Explore Esterhazy and the surrounding 

area — you will find a little history, a little 

culture and a lot of fun. 

Kaposvar Church is the heart of the 

first Hungarian homesteads. It is a 

magnificent church built in 1906-1907 

from more than 1,600 loads of local 

fieldstone. Members of the Kaposvar 

Historic Society give personal guided 

tours of the church, grotto, pioneer 

village and rectory that once served 

as a colonization office. The 100th 

Anniversary Celebration of the stone 

church was held at the historical site 

on July 22, 2007. The annual Our Lady 

of Assumption pilgrimage is held in 

site each year on the third Sunday in 

August and usually attracts hundreds of 

people. 

Kaposvar Church is designated a 

National Historic Event to 

commemorate the arrival and 

settlement of Hungarians at Esterhazy- 

Kaposvar. 

Esterhazy Museum (seen below) was 

built in 1910 and is one of the several 

historical focal points at the core of the 

Esterhazy Historical Park. 

Esterhazy Flour Mill was built in 1907 

and has been designated as a National 

Heritage site. It has been restored and 

is now open for walk-through tours. 

The Flour Mill celebrated it’s 100th 

Anniversary in 2007 — come and see a 

piece of history! 

Esterhazy Regional Park is the hub 

of the town’s recreation activities and 

includes a spectacular nine-hole grass 

green golf course with lush fairways 

winding through the beautiful Kaposvar 

Creek valley. Visitors and residents alike 

enjoy the many walking trails that wind 

through Kaposvar creek. In winter, the 

trails are groomed for cross-country 

skiing, making the park a delight to visit 

in all four seasons. 

The park is also home to the town’s 

arena and curling rink, aquatic centre, 

ball diamonds, tennis courts and 

campground. 

Esterhazy is home to the Saskatchewan 

Potash Interpretive Center — the only 

one in all of Canada with interactive 

displays showing the history, 

development and importance of potash 

to Saskatchewan and Canada!

Strasbourg you’re 

Find the balance 

looking for 

Take a drive this summer and explore 

“your own backyard.” A scenic drive 

through the Last Mountain Valley, north 

of Regina on Highway #20, will take you 

to Strasbourg – a town that brings to life 

the balance that we all seek. A 

progressive, thriving town, Strasbourg 

strives to keep alive its heritage and 

spirit of more than 100 years, by staying 

true to its small town roots and its vital 

sense of community. 

Travelers from all over can expect 

friendly faces and an accommodating 

atmosphere when visiting Strasbourg. 

Take advantage of the beautifully-treed 

Lions Park, with reasonably priced daily 

camping spots and a children’s Splash 

Park, situated in a peaceful, secluded 

area. While visiting, make sure to also 

stop by the Strasbourg & District 

Museum. A renovated train station as 

old as the town itself, the Museum 

boasts an impressive display of 

historical artifacts from Strasbourg and 

the surrounding area. 

Residents and visitors in need of health 

care can expect to be well taken care of 

in Strasbourg. The town is home to a 

professionally staffed clinic, with the 

services of a doctor, nurse practitioner, 

dentist, physiotherapist, and mental 

health practitioner. Health care continues 

into the community with massage 

therapists, and a pharmacy open six 

days a week. To further ensure the safety 

of our area, RCMP, ambulance, and a 

well-trained volunteer fire department are 

based within the town, and are always 

on call. 

Four churches provide for the spiritual 

needs of the residents: Alliance, 

Catholic, Lutheran, and United. You are 

welcome to join in worship and 

experience the inspirational musical 

talents from groups such as The Last 

Mountain Boys and Spirit Led. 

Families, either visiting or residing in 

Strasbourg, will find a community that 

supports growth and welcomes new 

faces. Welcome Neighbour Night is an 

annual event, which gives an opportunity 

to welcome newcomers to the town. The 

K-12 school draws students from a wide 

area, boasts a new playground facility, 

and provides many extracurricular 

activities, both sports and arts-oriented. 

Strasbourg is also an excellent place for 

businesses and families to grow, offering 

choices to the working family, including a 

fully licensed daycare. A number of 

senior citizen housing rental units are 

available, complete with lawn care and 

snow removal. A mobility bus, a 

volunteer taxi service, and Meals on 

Wheels are always available to residents 

needing assistance. 

There is never a dull moment in 

Strasbourg, as events are continually 

hosted year-round. Dinner theatres, 

drama festivals, dance recitals, fowl 

suppers, and haunted houses are just 

the tip of the iceberg of events that you 

can attend in Strasbourg. A monthly 

Farmer’s Market gives residents and 

visitors the chance to see what local 

artists and producers have to offer. If you 

like sports, hockey and curling both 

keep the Strasbourg Recreation Centre 

busy during the winter months. In the 

summer, the Lions Ball Park hosts both 

junior and senior ball teams for the 

season. Across the road from the ball 

diamonds is the beautifully kept, ninehole, 

sand green golf course, which 

hosts several tournaments, including an 

annual Hole-in-One tourney with a 

$10,000 grand prize. 

Strasbourg has developed a beautiful 

green space for the community to enjoy 

on Mountain Street. The residents of 

Strasbourg are looking forward to having 

a place to gather or rest. 

A short, 20-minute drive west from 

Strasbourg will take you to beautiful 

Rowan’s Ravine Provincial Park on Last 

Mountain Lake, where you can enjoy 

fishing, boating, swimming, and 

camping. To the north of Strasbourg is 

the oldest bird sanctuary in North 

America. Last Mountain Lake is a 

migratory artery, drawing outdoorsmen 

from all over the world. 

Strasbourg enjoys its quieter, country 

pace, but also has the comforts of a 

larger centre. There is no need to leave 

town to enjoy great restaurants, 

specialty shops, high speed internet, or 

banking, including 24-hour ATM service. 

A hardware store, lumber yard, post 

office, library, liquor store, car dealership, 

computer repair and sales shop, service 

stations, grocery stores, insurance 

agencies and vehicle repair shops are 

only some of the many services 

available.

tour and to see all that Strasbourg has 

to offer. We look forward to seeing you 

soon!

Fort Qu’Appelle 

An ‘oasis on the prairies’ best describes the community 

of Fort Qu’Appelle located in the Qu’Appelle Valley of 

southern Saskatchewan. Surrounded by a history and a 

culture dating back to the late 1700s, the valley community 

has been referred to as a recreational mecca. 

Within this beautiful valley are four freshwater lakes 

which attracted fur traders and the establishment of the 

Hudson Bay post in 1864. The North West Mounted Police 

established their barracks on the site which is now the 

Echo Ridge Golf Course. In 1885 the barracks served as 

headquarters for troops under General Middleton prior to 

proceeding north to Batoche to deal with the Riel Rebellion. 

Over 130 years ago, 32 western prairie First Nations Bands 

gathered in the valley near Fort Qu’Appelle to negotiate 

and sign Treaties with Her Majesty the Queen. Today, these 

traditional lands are the site of The Treaty Four Governance 

Centre as well as the site of annual celebrations of those 

historic events. Adjacent to the center is the largest 

inhabited Tipi measuring 70 feet in diameter, rising 111 feet 

above the valley floor with 13 poles supporting the circular 

structure of the Tipi. Each pole represents a spiritual or 

ethical value of the First Nations Community. 

Approximately 45 minutes northeast of our capital city on 

Highway 10, Fort Qu’Appelle has become a major tourist 

and business centre with all the conveniences of larger 

cities. The year round recreational activities include: a 

magnificent golf course within walking distance from a 

lakeshore campground; hiking and nature trails; access to 

Pasqua Lake, Echo Lake, Mission Lake and Katepwa Lake 

for fishing or recreational water activities; Mission Ridge 

Winter Park for skiing and snowboarding; snowmobile trails 

as well as many historical points of interest just to mention 

some of the unique attractions within this valley community. 

A new “FORT” has been built at the old Saskatchewan 

Environment site beside the Town campground. Phase 

Two of the project is taking place with the renovation of 

the existing buildings at the site to provide rental space for 

cultural activities. The Fort and grounds including washroom 

facilities are presently available for rent by contacting (306) 

332-5266.

Wolseley is an exceptional prairie 

community. In 1902 the Canadian 

Pacific Railway dammed up Wolf 

Creek creating a man-made lake. 

Through an underground pipe, water 

from this lake was pumped to a tank 

next to the railway tracks. The steam 

locomotives using the water have long 

since disappeared. Fairly Lake, as it is 

now called, is one of our many unique, 

picturesque features of the town. 

Spanning this body of water is a 100 

metre long Swinging Bridge. If you walk 

across the bridge you will find another 

treasure in our community, the oldest 

existing Court House in Saskatchewan. 

This court building was constructed 

in 1895 and presently is the only one 

surviving from the Territorial Government 

days. On Blanchard Street we have 

the Wolseley Museum. Attached to this 

museum is the first Beaver Lumber 

Office which had its beginnings in 

Wolseley and its creator E.A. Banbury 

formed his idea that launched an 

enterprise in our community. His home 

“the Banbury House” is one of our 

town features and you can spend the 

night as it was converted to a bed and 

breakfast back in 1985. 

The historic “gem” of the community 

is the Town Hall / Opera House. Built 

Opera House 

Perley Block 

in 1906 as a facility to house a library, 

town office, council chambers, jail 

cell, fire hall and opera house, it was 

restored to its original glory in 1993. 

It is now the community auditorium 

for a variety of events from theatre 

performances to weddings and dance 

competitions. 

Court House 

Twilite Drive-In 

There is more to Wolseley than its rich 

heritage of buildings. It is a town that 

enjoys significant sports programs, 

multi-faceted cultural groups, 

progressive businesses and industries. 

All these add up to a very attractive 

community for both residents and 

visitors. 

The Town of Wolseley invites you to our 

community and to see our historic and 

unique places.

Office at (306) 698-2477.

Biking in Moose Mountain Provincial Park 

Photo Credit: Tourism Saskatchewan/Douglas E. Walker 

Sunday of each December, 

townspeople recreate the Victorian age, 

with caroling urchins, Father Christmas, 

and even Ebenezer Scrooge! 

One of the area’s favorite summer 

attractions can also be found in Carlyle: 

the Prairie Dog Drive-In Theatre delights 

locals and visitors from miles around, to 

re-visit the golden days of drive-in 

movies. 

Weyburn is an excellent spot to learn a 

lot about several fascinating facets of 

Canadian history. “The roarin’ game” is 

arguably the favourite winter sport of 

small town Canadians, so you’ll find the 

Turner Curling Museum both 

entertaining and illuminating. Weyburn’s 

Heritage Village is a replica of a prairie 

community from the turn of the century 

to the 1940s. The Soo Line Historical 

Museum has many surprising artifacts, 

including one of the largest silver 

collections in the world. 

National and provincial political icon 

T.C. “Tommy” Douglas, the Father of 

Medicare, spent much of his early life 

as a Baptist minister in Weyburn. Now, 

a life-size bronze statue of this 

“Greatest Canadian” stands on the 

city’s Riverfront Boardwalk. The church 

in which he preached is now the 

Tommy Douglas Centre. 

Estevan is known as the Energy City, 

site of two power stations producing 

more than half the electricity used by 

the province of Saskatchewan. Take a 

tour of the Shand Power Station to see 

how the excess heat it generates is 

used to warm a greenhouse producing 

millions of seedlings for conservation 

projects. The Estevan Art Gallery & 

Museum is a public facility dedicated to 

developing and disseminating artistic, 

cultural and historical achievements. 

The Roche Percée Rock Formations are 

perhaps the most dramatic and 

intriguing attraction in the southeast 

corner of Saskatchewan. These 

unusual outcroppings, eroded by wind 

and water, were once covered with 

symbolic First Nations carvings and 

later autographs of early European 

explorers. South East Tours & Trails, 

based in Bienfait, provides guided tours 

of the area’s historical and natural 

attractions, including sites of the NWMP 

(North West Mounted Police), Boundary 

Commission, First Nations/Metis, coal 

mining history, and more. 

At Cannington Manor Provincial Historic 

Park, guides in period garb introduce 

visitors to the days when the sons of 

English gentry were sent to this 

 


Victorian outpost on the Canadian 

prairies to learn to become “gentlemen 

farmers”. 

The Happy Nun Café & Music in Forget 

embraces a broad horizon of arts, 

including culinary, visual, performance 

and literary! Whenever possible, they 

use local and seasonal produce, meat 

and ingredients, and showcase local 

and regional musicians and performers. 

Kenosee Lake, nestled in Moose 

Mountain Provincial Park, is one of the 

most popular recreation destinations in 

the area, with a variety of appealing 

places to stop or stay: the Kenosee Inn 

Resort Hotel has a balcony off every 

room, light housekeeping cabins, and a 

licensed dining room and lounge. Club 

19 Restaurant and Lounge is open for 

meals, beverages and a great view all 

year round, but during the spring and 

summer you can also enjoy Golf 

Kenosee, an 18-hole course with bent 

grass greens. 

Close by, also on Kenosee Lake, is the 

Moosehead Inn, a restaurant, lounge, 

and nightclub with an unusual twist – 

it’s reputed to be haunted! There are no 

guarantees you will witness paranormal 

activity of any sort, but your spirits will 

definitely be raised once you try their 

“world famous” pizza! 

No vacation is ever truly complete 

unless it involves some serious 

shopping for those “what did you bring 

me?” homecoming moments! If your 

southeastern wanderings take you by 

the village of Fairlight, be sure to check 

out the gifts and gourmet foods at 

Home Sweet Home Tea Room & Gift 

Shoppe. The name itself will brighten 

your day! And for more wonderful 

small-town customer-friendly shopping 

experiences, browse King’s Department 

Store in Carlyle. 

In the Estevan Shopper’s Mall, visit the 

Solar Studio Art Gallery, a unique 

co-operative created and managed by 

local artists. Then enhance your 

shopping trip – and your vacation -- 

with a little well-deserved selfpampering 

at Dolly Sue’s Salon, Day 

Spa & Boutique. 

Many visitors find that there’s so much 

to see and do in the Souris and Moose 

Mountain regions of southeastern 

Saskatchewan that they just can’t fit it 


all in to one trip! So if you plan to stay a while, be sure to 

look around and see what accommodations might be exactly 

right for you. 

Near Midale, like an oasis dropped from the sky among the 

level grain fields, rocky grasslands and numerous pumpjacks 

dotting Saskatchewan’s oil patch, you’ll find Mainprize 

Regional Park and Golf Course. There are housing and 

camping lots, a restaurant and fully-stocked Pro-Shop. Also 

at Mainprize Regional Park is wheelchair-accessible Harbour 

View Bed & Breakfast, with high-speed wireless internet, 

located close to the beach and boat launch. 

Other B&B options are Antler Creek Bed & Breakfast in 

Wawota, a livestock farm offering spacious, comfortable and 

relaxing surroundings. Carnduff’s Orioles Paradise Bed & 

Breakfast is quiet and comfortable, within walking distance to 

every part of town. 

Near Moose Mountain Provincial Park, White Bear Lake 

Resort and the town of Carlyle, the 36-room Bear Claw Hotel 

has indoor access to the Bear Claw Casino gaming floor and 

full-service restaurant. There’s free wireless internet, and 

convenient RV and bus parking. 

Whenever you come to visit southeastern Saskatchewan, in 

whichever season, and whatever your interests may be, you’ll 

find a warm welcome waiting for you, with plenty to see and 

do, and more options and opportunities than you’re likely to 

be able to fit comfortably into your plans. That means just 

one thing – you need to plan a return visit…soon.

Redvers 

A 

Centennial 

Community 

In 1870, at the time of the Red River 

Rebellion, companies of British 

soldiers and Ontario residents were 

sent to quell the rebellion. 

Young Captain Buller was in charge 

of one such company. Twenty-eight 

years later, he was General Sir Redvers 

Buller, Commander in Chief of the 

British forces in South Africa. In 1897- 

98, surveyors arrived at the point where 

Redvers now stands and were called 

upon to give it a name. The headlines 

in the newspaper that night carried the 

news of the Boer War and mentioned 

the name of Generals Sir Redvers 

Buller, Warren, Rhodes, Methuen and 

Wauchope. Our town was given the 

name of Redvers and our streets the 

names of the other generals. The town 

was incorporated in 1904 and such is 

our history. 

The Log Cabin Tourist Booth is open 

daily starting May long weekend to 

September Labour Day weekend. 

Located on Highway #13 beside 

the World’s largest North West 

Mounted Police statue. Inside the 

wheelchair accessible cabin enjoy 

coffee or iced tea and some freshly 

baked Saskatoon pie. The gift 

Redvers celebrated its centennial 

year in 2004 and is proud to be 

the first “Sask Best Community” in 

Saskatchewan. In 1990, Redvers 

received the Five Star Community 

Award for their commitment towards 

full social and economic participation 

of people with disabilities. 

Redvers Ag Ex and Bull Congress is 

held annually on the first Thursday in 

April. 

Redvers Moccasins and McNeil Oak 

Barrel Art are two unique businesses 

selling rare Saskatchewan made 

products across Canada and beyond.

Energy City 

Photograph courtesy of Melanie Hiske 

Why Estevan? 

Located in the South East corner of 

Saskatchewan, Estevan is a corridor 

for travel to and from the United States. 

Hustling and bustling with economic 

activity, the city has solid foundations of 

a vibrant community. Estevan has 

something for everyone, whether a pass 

by traveler with only a couple of hours to 

spend or the traveler with a couple of 

days to take it all in, the young and the 

young at heart will find different aspects 

of the city, which will appeal to them. A 

variety of attractions, events, 

accommodations, restaurants and retail 

shopping are bound to keep you 

captivated. 

Motor Sports 

With 3 forms of motorsports, the Energy 

City is the most appropriate title for 

Estevan. These motorsports are a 

testimony to the love affair the residents 

of Estevan have with automobiles and 

racing. Between the Estevan Motor 

Speedway, Estevan Drag Racing 

Association and Trackside MX, the races 

provide a wide variety of options for 

racing enthusiasts. For the ones who 

haven’t been to races before, the 

experience can be exhilarating. 

Arts and Culture 

In the midst of all the economic activity, 

Estevan boasts of an arts scene which 

is not to be missed. The Estevan Art 

Gallery & Museum (EAGM) is a public 

gallery that offers a free exchange of 

ideas and perspectives to reflect 

Estevan’s rapidly expanding social and 

cultural diversity. The North West 

Mounted Police (NWMP) museum is 

located in close vicinity to the art gallery 

and documents artifacts which hold 

significance to the Mounted Police who 

arrived in Estevan in 1874. 

The Souris Valley Museum houses 

various exhibits that reflect the rich 

heritage and history of Estevan. The 

museum provides guided tours of the 

exhibits which include a cook cart and a 

school house, dating back to the 19th 

century. 

Hunting & Fishing 

The Estevan and surrounding area 

boasts great opportunities for anyone 

with the outdoors in mind. Hunting, 

fishing and hiking are among the most 

popular. 

Each fall finds hundreds of area hunters 

taking to the fields in pursuit of Whitetail 

deer, Mule deer, Antelope, Moose and 

Elk. There is also excellent water fowl 

populations due to the healthy 

watershed area and larger lakes like 

Rafferty, Boundary and Alameda dams. 

Fishing is also a favorite pastime in the 

Estevan area. Rafferty, Boundary and 

Alameda dams are excellent fishing 

water bodies in the immediate area. 

Northern Pike, Walleye and Yellow 

Perch are abundant in each water 

body. Boundary Dam is also very well 

known for it’s Largemouth Bass fishery. 

This is the only location in Western 

Canada where you can fight the mighty 

Largemouth Bass and fishermen travel 

for hours to enjoy the experience.

Kipling 

“Preserving our past, aspiring 

ipling was named for the great English author, 

“KRudyard Kipling. The town was born of the great 

migration of people from Europe and North America at the 

turn of the century. The Canadian West offered free land. The 

railways transported settlers coming in and products going 

out. Settlers from many lands came together to build homes 

and to form communities. Kipling became a trading centre 

and a community when a mix of British, German, Hungarian, 

and Scandinavian pioneers settled, built homes, schools, 

churches, and worked together. 

Kipling’s history is typical of many Saskatchewan local 

histories. But each history is different, although the 

environment, the hardships, and the challenges are much 

alike. Kipling’s history is unique because so many major 

strains, people from many different nations, came together, 

accepted one another, worked together and built a thriving 

community.” Quoted by Dr. John Archer (Kipling & District 

History Book). 

Kipling was incorporated September 11, 1909 and attained 

town status on January 1, 1954. According to the health 

region statistics, Kipling’s population covered by 

Saskatchewan Health Care in June 2010 was 1,236. Kipling 

also supports a sizeable trading area. The Town of Kipling is 

a 1½ hour drive from the cities of Yorkton, Regina, Estevan 

and Weyburn, located in the Rural Municipality of Kingsley 

which borders with the RMs of Hazelwood, Silverwood, and 

Chester. 

Kipling is based on an agricultural economy of grain, 

livestock and mixed farms, as well as an ever-increasingly 

strong oil exploration and service sector. The livestock 

industry boasts several large hog operations, which includes 

two of the world’s leading companies conducting research 

on swine genetics. Kipling has also become the centre for 

health care and youth education in the area. 

Golf Course 

The watered greens and fairways make the Kingswood Golf 

Course a lush playable surface. Reasonably priced at $12 for 

9-holes or $21 for 18-holes, the par 35 (men) and 36 (ladies) 

challenges golfers with abundant water hazards, hidden 

holes and plenty of trees. Power carts are available for rent 

and there are no booking requirements. For special golfing 

packages and rates, please call the clubhouse at (306) 736- 

8220 mid-May until mid-October or Kipling Recreation 

Programmer at (306) 736-8440 in the off season. 

Swimming Pool 

From June to August, the Kipling and District Swimming Pool 

staff offer lessons for Red Cross and diving, scuba diving 

clinics, aquasize. A variety of pool parties, and many other 

activities are also offered. Certified lifeguards supervise all 

swimming activities. For pool hours and events, call (306) 

736-2707 or the Recreation Programmer at (306) 736-8440.. 

Kipling Arena 

Our arena season runs from November to mid–march, with 

all levels of minor hockey, three Adult Rec. Hockey teams, a 

figure skating club, and a very active curling club. For more 

information on tournaments, regular season game 

schedules, figure skating, or curling bonspiels, call our 

Recreation Programmer Susan Hengen at (306) 736-8440. 

Campgrounds 

Stay at our modern, fully serviced campground, with 37 sites 

(both full service and tenting sites available) located in an 

urban park. The sites are centrally located, adjacent to the 

heated outdoor swimming pool and the 9-hole grass green

Guinness World Record 

“Largest Paper Clip” 

In 2006, Kipling made national headlines for its trade in the 

“One Red Paperclip Story”, and is now home to the famous 

house at 503 Main Street and the Guinness World Records 

Largest Paperclip. Located in Bell Park on 6th Avenue, the 

giant red paperclip stands 15’2” tall, 3’2” wide and weighs a 

whopping 3,043 lbs. It was built by Ardel Steel in Regina, 

Saskatchewan. 


In 2006, Kipling traded a house on Main Street to Kyle 

Macdonald (“The Paperclip Guy”), in exchange for a movie 

role. Much has happened to Kipling as a result. An 

entrepreneurial mother-daughter team opened the “Paperclip 

House” as a quaint restaurant now known as the Paperclip 

Cottage, which is open to the travelling public. They are 

cooking homemade goodness into all of their menu items, 

which includes coffees and baked goods. The Cottage is 

also the towns information center offering souvenirs of 

Kipling and Saskatchewan. They also display works by local 

artisans.. 

Downtown Saturday Night 

In honor of our town centennial, a mural from days gone by 

was painted by Janet Blackstock and Sharon Armstrong to 

capture a moment of our past forever. The mural is located 

on the side of Balfour’s Drug Store. 

Old Bekevar Presbyterian Church 

The twin-speared church in Debrecen, Hungary influenced 

the style of the Old Bekevar Church. Built largely with 

volunteer labour, the cost of construction was $8,000. Today 

the century old church has been fully restored. For tours of 

the church, contact Garnet Smalley at (306) 224-2006. 

Museum 

The Kipling and District Historical Society Museum, located 

at 4th Street and Centennial, is open from 2-4pm on 

weekends during July and August. Development of this 

project, which began in the 1970’s, is ongoing. The 

Museum’s main building, the restored Pipestone School, 

Ovans’ House, and Edenland Church are some of the main 

features. You can also visit the blacksmith shop, service 

station, dental office and Dalzell Elevator engine, or stop by 

the Inchkeith Women’s Institute and Royal Canadian Legion 

rooms. 

CNR Station 

The original Kipling CNR Station with the unique 

‘Kashabowie’ design was built in 1908 at a cost of $8,274. In 

1993, the station was designated as a Municipal Heritage 

Property, and is still being used today. 

Shopping 

Kipling has a bustling main street that can meet all of your 

travel needs. Grocery Stores, Pharmacies, Banks, Hardware 

Stores, Service Stations and much more are available to you.
