Looking to sneak in one last adventure before winter hits? For those who can’t get enough of the great outdoors and love exploring the beauty of Canada’s wilderness, Prince Albert National Park and Lake Waskesiu are ready to welcome you!

At Kapasiwin Bungalows, there’s nothing we love more than helping you make the most of your time in the wild. Learn what you can experience during Saskatchewan’s fall season in Prince Albert National Park below!

Hike Trails Full of Wonder


Prince Albert National Park is gorgeous all year round, but there’s something extra special going for a hike surrounded by a kaleidoscope of fall colours. Autumn transforms the region and changes the lush green leaves of birch, aspen, and pine trees into a multi-coloured tapestry. The park offers countless hiking trails for adventurers of all ages and experience levels, each offering unique views. From leisurely walks along the shores of Lake Waskesiu to challenging hikes through dense forested areas, there’s a trail suited to everyone!


Wildlife Watching


Fall is an excellent time for wildlife enthusiasts to observe the park’s diverse local critters and creatures. As temperatures cool and crowds begin to thin out, animals such as elk, deer, and bison become more active and visible during the day. Keep your eyes peeled while hiking and exploring; you never know who and what you’ll see!


Remember: safety first! Never approach or feed wild animals. Doing so is dangerous and risks hefty fees from Parks Canada. 


Scenic Drives and Photography


There’s nothing quite like a road trip that makes taking in the full splendour of fall even easier. The park’s well-maintained roads offer panoramic views of forests, tranquil lakes reflecting the clear blue sky, and expansive meadows bathed in golden sunlight. Make sure to bring your camera; these can’t-miss views are perfect for making memories and boosting your Instagram cred!


Canoeing and Kayaking on Lake Waskesiu


Take advantage of the crisp fall days and grab your paddle for a relaxing canoe or kayak adventure on Lake Waskesiu. Cooler temperatures mean you’ll have plenty of water to yourself and an extra peaceful atmosphere to enjoy while exploring. 


Create Your Own Adventure


One of the best things about visiting during shoulder season is that fewer crowds make it easier to explore at your own pace and do your favourite activities with minimal hassle. Whether you want to visit local heritage sites, read by the lakeside, hike, star gaze, or dance in the wild like no one’s watching (we won’t judge, we promise!), you’ll have the privacy to do so at your leisure!
