Why go
Saskatchewan's capital city offers museums, parkland and insights into the politics and history of the Royal Canadian Mounted Police. The city is compact enough for a relaxing day visit.
The stop is intended as a quiet stage. The Fifth Wheel remains on a suitable basis if possible, while narrow local, coastal and park roads are only explored with the pickup truck.

Practical tips
Planning a city visit without trailer.
Consider wind on open pitches.
Check museum opening hours.
Save offline maps. In rural regions, national parks and in the north, mobile communications can be missing over long distances.
Never take water untested from lakes or rivers into the fresh water tank. Replenish drinking water only at released sources or prepare it professionally.
Our recommendation
Use Regina as a cultural and supply break between Grasslands and Saskatoon.
