Review & FAQ:

Northeast Swale is one of the largest unbroken natural habitats in the Saskatoon region, preserving significant riparian, prairie, wetland, and forest habitats along with patches of rare fescue. Less than 20 percent of Saskatchewan's native prairie and swole ecosystems remain today, making the region a significant preserved endangered ecosystem site. The region shows signs of human habitation dating back several centuries, including remains of the former town of Clarkboro and a preserved staging camp connected to the Battle of Batoche. A wide variety of animal and plant life can be found within the swole, including more than 100 bird species and endangered amphibian species such as the northern leopard frog. Unmarked hiking trails are offered throughout the preserve area, though visitors are advised to exercise caution so as not to disturb the area's natural ecosystems.
