Nature and landscape
Cypress Hills Interprovincial Park
Cypress Hills Interprovincial Park Surprises by its wooded plateaus that dominate the surrounding prairies, with rolling roads, lakes and gazebos. At altitude, pines and valleys give southwestern Saskatchewan an unexpected atmosphere, almost mountain in places.
Culture and heritage
Fort Walsh
Fort Walsh In the years of the North-West Mounted Police, at a site linked to border tensions, the whisky trade and the Plains peoples. Reconstituted buildings, uniforms and open landscapes help to imagine the life of an isolated post in the Cypress hills.
Place indismissible
Conglomerate Cliffs
To Conglomerate Cliffs, the rock forms rough walls and cemented blocks that slice with adjacent meadows and woods. The point of view applies as much to the texture of the cliffs as to the horizon: layers of stone, pines hung on the slopes and reliefs that fall towards the valley.
Place indismissible
Dark-Sky Preserve
The starry Cypress Hills Sky Reserve takes advantage of the distance from the big cities to offer very dark nights, conducive to observing constellations and the Milky Way. In clear weather, the park changes completely after sunset, especially from open areas and viewpoints.
