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.
