The Trans Canada Ecotour routes are divided into landscape regions, each with a map showing the location of selected points of interest. Each point of interest is numbered and the distances between points are provided. For some points, the nearest highway exit number is given as a location reference. You can see many of the described features without stopping; however, some stops and detours will certainly add to your pleasure. It is suggested that you read about each map section and its points of interest in advance. The Ecotours are designed for either easterly or westerly travel and often include optional side-trips.

You’ll never take the southern Saskatchewan landscape for granted after following this guide from Moosomin to Maple Creek. From the dead-flat prairie in the east to the lush valley of the Qu’Appelle River and rugged uplands of Cypress Hills, this Ecotour offers surprising diversions to the curious traveller, revealing secrets of both the magnificent and mundane along the way.
