Canada Journey, hotel in Europe,
Paddling the True North
100,000 lakes
59,000 sq-km of water
03 billion years in the making
A loon calls. A boreal chorus frog answers back. These, and the swooshes of your paddle as you kayak across one of Northern Saskatchewan's clearwater lakes, are the only sounds heard. It has been days since you last saw a paved road or a motorized vehicle. Surrounded by boundless nature, you ply waterborne routes first explored by aboriginal peoples millennia ago, then again by fur traders before Canada was born, and now by you.
Northern Saskatchewan is a kayak and canoe utopia — with picturesque lakes located only a few hours' drive from a major urban centre. In fact, it is said the province is home to 100,000 waterbodies, and this number may actually be conservative. The expansive Precambrian Shield harbours uncountable waters that blend together to form a labyrinth of paddling pathways; a virtual inland sea to discover for days, if not weeks. Each night, tent under the stars on a rocky islet, or reserve a luxury eco-cabin and enjoy five-stars while you stare at a billion more. It is a paddling paradise where time stands still — even as you move on ever-forward.
