It’s not too soon to start thinking about the 2016 camping season. Starting in January, people can apply for a seasonal camping site at one of 20 provincial parks and recreation sites in Saskatchewan.
The sites will be allocated by a lottery system and will allow campers to secure a campsite from mid-May until the end of August.
“The opportunity to spend time with family and friends in a beautiful, natural setting is very important to the people of our province, and is only growing in popularity,” said Mark Docherty, Saskatchewan’s parks, culture and sport minister.
“We are proud to offer high-quality experiences and are always looking at ways that we can enhance our offerings.”

Application forms for seasonal camping will be available online starting Monday, Jan. 4, 2016. The last day to apply is Jan. 26, with the draw taking place on Feb. 1.
Those looking to make nightly camping reservations will be able to do so starting in April, with more information coming out next month.
There were almost 3.9 million visits to Saskatchewan provincial parks in 2015, a new record.
