West Central Region at a Glance
With a history and a landscape shaped by numerous rivers and lakes, West Central
Saskatchewan has a wealth of exciting and educational activities on offer. North
Battleford lies across the North Saskatchewan River from Battleford
(collectively the two are known as The Battlefords) and these, along with the
border city of Lloydminster,
are the largest centres in the region featuring events and attractions such
as the Fort
Battleford National Historic Site, the Fred
Light Museum and Lloydminster
Colonial Days. Information on Louis Riel and the 1885 Metis Rebellion and
other First Nations history and culture is on display at places such as the
Duck
Lake Regional Information Centre, the Batoche
National Historic Site near Rosthern
and at Chief
Poundmaker Historical Centre in Cutknife.
Both Danielson
Provincial Park near Loreburn
and Saskatchewan
Landing Provincial Park in Kyle
contain sections of the huge Lake
Diefenbaker, which offers sandy beaches, fishing, water sports, camping
and much more. Similar activities can be enjoyed at Blackstrap
Provincial Park near Dundurn
and on Jackfish
Lake, located in Battlefords
Provincial Park near Cochin.
