There are many activities to amuse and entertain you at River Trail. You can design your own custom vacation getaway or you can opt for one of our pre-arranged packages. Scenic tours and day trips can also be arranged. Some of our guests find it convenient that German translation is available.

You can canoe down the Torch River or golf at the Evergreen Golf Club which is one of the top courses in Canada and is only 30 minutes away. Spend your days fishing for Walleye and Northern Pike on Tobin or Codette Lakes, 30 and 45 minutes away, respectively. In Nipawin you can attend the Vanity Cup, a very prestigious fishing event. The Saskatchewan Premier's Walleye Cup is also an event you won't want to miss.

You can visit local craft stores such as The Love Barn, located in the village of Love or The Arts Of Boreal, in the town of Nipawin. The Living Forestry Museum is also a must-see in Nipawin where you can trace the history of the surrounding area through their antiques and memorabilia. Every July 1st, the museum hosts a special display for Canada’s birthday. Included are bread baking in real clay ovens, lumber sawing with a steam powered saw mill and threshing demonstrations using vintage tractors and threshing machines.

Visit exotic animal farms and ranches where animals such as Bison and Elk (Wapiti) are raised. In the Spring and Fall, seeding and harvesting operations can be seen in the area south of us.

For those of you who just want to relax without leaving River Trail, we have a canoe for use on our large on-site pond. There are also 5 km. (3 miles) of hiking trail on site and many miles of virtually unused back roads to explore. Since we are next to the Saskatchewan Northern Provincial Forest, the use of a Global Positioning System (GPS) device is recommended.

For winter visitors, you can ski at the Wapiti Valley Ski Park nearby and enjoy the double chair lift on hills with lots of snow as they have their own snow making equipment. Snowmobilers are welcome at River Trail. You can go snowmobiling through the exhilarating northern stretch of the Trans Canada Trail on well maintained, groomed trails. Snowshoeing and cross-country skiing are also popular.

After a day of participating in your favorite activities, you can stretch out and relax in the comfort of your own cozy cabin. In the evening you can enjoy sing-along and story telling under star-lit skies at our fire-pit while waiting to view the awesome splendour of the beautiful Northern Lights.

We wish you a happy and exciting vacation!

Deloris and Marvin
