Check out what’s happening in the cities of Saskatoon and Regina, hike through the northern boreal forests of Prince Albert National Park, explore the prairie terrain in Grasslands National Park, or get outdoors in the 35 provincial parks. Bordering the US states of Montana and North Dakota, and the Canadian provinces of Alberta and Manitoba, Saskatchewan takes its name from the Cree word, Kisiskatchewanisipi, for the Saskatchewan River.

Unless you really know what you’re doing, stick to the Middle Yough and section and enjoy a more leisurely experience.If you’re looking for big skies and wide open spaces, you’ll find them in Western Canada’s prairie province.

Serious whitewater rafting enthusiasts from all over the country come to southern Pennsylvania to conquer the Youghiogheny River’s IV and V rapids, including the notorious Meat Cleaver, a gnarly stretch of falls that bends through a maze of jagged boulders. An easy 1¼-mile hike takes you to the park’s main attraction, the 53-foot Muddy Creek Falls waterfall. Many of its trails follow the river, so wear a swimsuit under your hiking clothes so you can take breaks in the calmer sections of water. Of all the wilderness to explore in the area-Garrett County has seven state parks-Swallow Falls should be on the top of your list. For gear rentals or tours, most outfitters are based in the towns of McHenry or Oakland. Swimmers can get lake access via the public beach at Deep Creek Lake State Park.

But the lake is also a natural amusement park, one where you can shoot across the water on jet skis or in an inner tube towed by a motor boat. Many people visit this 3,900-acre man-made lake seeking serenity, be it by kayak, paddleboard, or boat.
