Narrow Hills and Lac La Ronge Provincial Parks
As both parks are still recovering from the 2025 wildfires, visitors should note that the Gem Lakes campground in Narrow Hills Provincial Park and Wadin Bay campground in Lac La Ronge Provincial Park will remain closed for the season. All other campgrounds and day-use areas at both parks will be open for the 2026 season.
Summer Events and Programming
A number of summer events are planned for this year. Family favourites such as Canada Day and Summer Cinema will return, along with signature events like Back in the Boreal at Meadow Lake Provincial Park and Trade Days at Fort Carlton Provincial Historic Park.
Several new programs are coming to parks this summer, including new hiking events, a 40th birthday bash for Candle Lake Provincial Park, and more.

- Camp-Easy Mongolian yurt: $135.
What stays the same: All other fees, including nightly camping sites, Park Entry Permits, swimming lessons, and day-use facilities, remain unchanged for 2026. Firewood continues to be free of charge in Saskatchewan's Provincial Parks.
