Reviews of Fort Carlton Provincial Park (Tourist Attraction)

Jake Felix

Beautiful historic location

Tom Wolf

Love this place. After learning from the interpretive guides, a walk down to the North Saskatchewan is essential to appreciate the importance of the location.

Eric Fletcher

Although we arrived late, staff were happy to show us around as they closed up. The drive in seems way off the beaten path, but the museum shows how this site was once a key hub on the trade routes. Tip: if you are continuing west or north, learn more about the history & wildlife by taking the nearby free ferry across the N Saskatchewan River near Wingard to follow the Riverlands Heritage Preservation route (good gravel; well-signed).

Thoroughly enjoyed visiting this old fort and learning some of the history behind it and the people.

I recommended a trip to Fort Carlton to learn history of HBC and relationship with our First Nations people. More on Treaty 6 there. Informative trip, friendly staff, picnic spot, and small hike to the river makes the visit memorable. Bannock and berry leaf tea served near a tippy made visit even memorable.

Revisited after 20 years. The girls were amazing! The tour was so nice and we learned alot. Great for the whole family including little kids. They have nice hands on displays and you can walk around the top of the fort which has a nice view. Well worth a visit!

Hey guys just drove out there today from Saskatoon based on the we;bsite information that the park was open 9-5 but the gate indicated it was closed for the season. Can someone please advise why the website does not reflect reality. thanks Neil

Melinda Sutherland

My experience at Fort Carlton was amazing. It was quite and everything was accessible

Dan Baker

Very nice. Busy at times

Kurtis Kalinowski

Really enjoyed taking the kids to this Fort. Not very busy and a nice reminder of Canada's fur trading past. Got to use flint to make sparks, touch all kinds of different animal fur. They were making bannock outside and everyone got to make their own over an open fire. Great little museum inside and top notch tour guides.

Reynold Ledoux

Very nice. takes you back in time

Deb Nicolas

Horrible!! The walking path has not been maintained, it is covered in debris and poison ivy. Took our grandchildren there yesterday and we were stung by bees that had built a nest under one of the boardwalks. DO NOT WALK DOWN THIS PATH! Very dangerous.

Terry
