Cheap Car Hire Saskatchewan

Wide prairies, romantic lake-land countryside, mysterious woods and wild river courses

Saskatchewan is a true natural paradise. In the centre, the landscape is flat and predominantly populated with farms. In the south you will find Grasslands National Park which is the only piece of natural prairie that has been preserved.  The Canadian Province is bordered on the west by Alberta and on the east by Manitoba, in the north by the North-West territories and in the south by the USA.  The territory is almost twice as big as Germany but is more sparsely populated with a total of just 1 million inhabitants.  The population is concentrated in the cities of Saskatchewan – the image of the rural region is characterised by agriculture.  It’s interesting to note that about 13% of the population have Indian roots so you also have the opportunity to learn first hand about their history, culture and traditions.  The name Saskatchewan is based on the Indian word “kisiskatchewan” which means “gentle flowing river”       

Participate in Some Water Sports

The South Saskatchewan- River along with the Assiniboine and the Churchill River belong to the largest rivers in the area.  Those of you that are water-sports enthusiasts, everything you could wish for is here:  particularly rafting and canoeing are popular activities.  Those of you that want to do something a little more relaxing on the water should try a fishing trip or go on a sailing trip on one of the 100,000 lakes.  The huge expanse of countryside is ideal for walking, cycling and horse-riding.  It doesn’t matter what activity you choose the breath-taking natural environment will add to this unique atmosphere.
