Porcupine Hills

Porcupine Hills Provincial Park, established in 1986, protects 26 square kilometres of the distinctive Porcupine Hills in east-central Saskatchewan, near the Manitoba border. The park preserves one of the province's most unique landscapes where the boreal forest meets aspen parkland on a series of prominent hills rising above the surrounding plains. Named for the North American porcupines common in the area, the park offers a wilderness experience with minimal development, emphasizing backcountry camping, hiking, and nature appreciation in a remote setting.
