Saskatchewan Provincial Parks Announce Seasonal Camping Program

Saskatchewan Provincial Parks announced a new Seasonal Camping Program. Seasonal camping offers the opportunity to book a campsite from mid-May to the end of September.  These campsites are offered at a discount instead of the regular nightly camping rate and are always in high demand.  There are 21 provincial parks and recreation sites that offer the seasonal camping program, and due to its popularity, campsites are allocated via a lottery system.

The application forms for seasonal campsites are available online (or download the .pdf copy and submit in person) and the deadline for applications is Thursday, January 29, 2015. The draw to award the campsites will be Monday, February 2, 2015.

“Saskatchewan’s provincial parks continue to be incredibly popular tourism destinations,” Parks, Culture and Sport Minister Mark Docherty said.  “Demand for our provincial parks continues to increase and we are always looking for ways to enhance our visitor experience.”

Nightly camping reservations will be available for booking beginning the first week of March.  As in past years, there will be a staggered launch, with different parks available on different days.
