Explore Saskatoon Parks
The Green Network: Ride, Walk, and Explore Saskatoon Parks!
This summer, the City of Saskatoon invites residents to bike, bus, or walk (in any combination) to explore the city’s Green Network—the system of parks, natural areas, and green spaces.
The locations have been chosen to easily connect with transit and active transportation routes. So, whether you are hopping on a bus, wandering on foot, or pedalling your way through the city, exploring Saskatoon parks has never been easier. Each spot promises a unique outdoor experience, from hidden gems to beloved favourites.

Cyclists
The City of Saskatoon 2024 Cycling Guide and online mobile-friendly version of the Cycling Guide provide cyclists with cycling routes, major community destinations and key cycling tips, while also including detailed transit stop information.
Saskatoon Transit
Planning a trip is easier than ever with real-time transit tracking when using third-party apps like Transit and Google Maps Transit. The Transit App and Google Transit provide walking directions to the nearest stop and allow riders to find their destination based on landmarks or place names instead of an address.
The Transit app offers trip planning, service alerts, real-time bus locations, and convenient Saskatoon Transit fare payment with just a few taps. Real-time transit tracking shows a bus's location and the number of minutes until the next bus arrives, which limits wait times at bus stops.
Using the Transit app’s multimodal trip planner, riders can make first- and last-mile connections to buses with personal bikes, e-scooters, Uber, or riide, making it easier than ever to get aboard and explore Saskatoon’s parks. All buses are equipped with front bike racks that are free and easy to use. The bike racks can accommodate tires up to 2” wide.
