Dear Canada friend,
From scenic road trips and hands-on farm visits to award-winning spirits and immersive Indigenous stories shared under the stars – Saskatchewan’s newest offerings for summer 2025 invite travellers to connect more deeply with the land, the people, and the stories of the prairies.
While the beauty of Saskatchewan continues to shine, we acknowledge that forest fires are currently affecting some northern areas of the province. Our thoughts are with the communities, individuals, and businesses impacted by these events. Most key tourism areas and major travel routes remain safe and open. We encourage all travellers to stay informed by checking official sources regarding active fires, fire bans, and highway closures before and during their trip: Know Before you Go by Tourism Saskatchewan. Travellers can also refer to Destination Canada’s Wildfire Guidance for Travellers Visiting Canada.
By staying aware and informed, we can help ensure that travellers continue to explore Canada’s Secrets safely, responsibly, and with care - now and in the future.
Enjoy reading!
