Jan 2, 2020 | 11:34 AM

There’s nothing like it! The exhilarating feeling of the freedom you get after pushing your endurance deep in the woods on a cross country ski trail.  It’s the crisp fresh air; the smell of the pines and the crunch of the snow under your feet. When the day is done, it’s the gratification of the warmth of being back indoors. It’s the Waskesiu winter wilderness experience!

It might be cold outside but several hotels and lodges in Waskesiu, in the Prince Albert National Park, are open and warm and cozy all winter long – and it’s just a quick trip down the highway from the city of Prince Albert. Open all four seasons, there are accommodation options to choose from, even in the winter season.

Waskesiu’s Hawood Inn is a Saskatchewan gem, in the heart of Waskesiu, with a stunning lake view. It’s a perfect place to stay any time of year. No matter the weather, you’re sure to stay cozy during your stay.  You can enjoy meals in their fine dining restaurant and find a unique gift in the gift store. You may take advantage of their free cross-country skiing gear as well.  At the end of your day, you can take a relaxing soak in the steaming hot tubs up on the roof under Saskatchewan’s spectacular star lit night sky.

For a unique personal winterized cabin or for bigger crowds looking for a place to stay surrounded by forest and only minutes from the town site, look no further. Lost Creek Resort in the park specializes in providing quality accommodations and is the perfect setting for large gatherings, events, reunions or weddings.  You’re only steps out the back door onto a ski trail for some crisp, fresh air.
