Saskatchewan Trails - A Guide to Nature Walks and Easy Hikes - 2nd Edition by Robin and Arlene Karpan, takes you on over 100 trails throughout Saskatchewan - to provincial, national, regional, and urban parks, along sections of the new Trans Canada Trail, and to lesser known natural areas waiting to be discovered.  Hike through the rugged grandeur of the Canadian Shield near La Ronge, over conglomerate cliffs with magnificent views in the Cypress Hills, through sand dunes at Douglas and Good Spirit Lake Provincial Parks, over spectacular hills at Saskatchewan Landing, and beside rich wetland habitat that has some of the best birdwatching anywhere. Hike through a forest where two-metre high ostrich ferns line the trail, take a pleasant walk along the Carrot River to where a 92 million year old crocodile was unearthed, or make the 20-kilometre pilgrimage to Grey Owl's cabin in Prince Albert National Park.  A few of the hikes will challenge you, although the majority are easy and meant for the whole family.
