Davidson - Saskatchewan

18 Pages 1 2 3 >»

This beautiful town of under a thousand lies about halfway between Saskatoon to the northwest and Regina to the southeast, along highway 11. Its inhabitants are rightfully proud of their civic projects, such as a centennial walking trail, town landscaping and plantings, school garden club, commemorative trees and homecoming banners, along with several ecological projects. The rest stop area features a giant coffee pot and mug as well as an iron sculpture of a Métis fiddler, in keeping with the history of this part of the province around highway 11 which is also known as the Métis Trail. Recreational opportunities, such as water sports and fishing, centre around Lake Diefenbaker. The Last Mountain Lake Bird Sanctuary was designated in 1987 as a National Wildlife Area as well as being a Wetland of International Importance, of which there are 700 locations worldwide. The specific habitats around the lake offer shelter for 9 of Canada's 36 endangered bird species as well as rare plants. The north end of the lake provides a refuelling stop for northbound migrants.
