Getting Here

Fly in to Saskatoon

Forest HouseThere are several ways to get to Saskatoon. Most people fly into the city. Three companies fly into Saskatoon: West Jet, Air Canada and Northwest Airlines. Other ways to arrive in Saskatoon include train, bus and car. There are numerous hotels, restaurants and interesting tourist attractions to look into while you are there. We can help arrange a hotel room and suggest things to do while you are in Saskatoon.

Getting from Saskatoon to Missinipe

There are 4 main ways to travel from Saskatoon to Missinipe.

1. Flying is the nicest, quickest way to do it. Transwest Air (306.665.2700) (www.transwestair.com) flies to La Ronge several times a day. We can meet you at the La Ronge Airport and transport you to our base in Missinipe.

2. The bus is probably the least expensive way to get to La Ronge (depending on the size of your group). The Saskatchewan Transportation Company is the only bus line to La Ronge. They can be reached at 306.953.3700. We can meet you at the La Ronge Bus Depot and transport you to our base in Missinipe.

3. You can rent a car or van and drive to Missinipe. We generally rent from Budget in Saskatoon. Their phone number is 306.244.7925. There are so many interesting things to see along the way that the drive could end up taking many days. But it is normally a 6 hour drive.

4. You can hire a van and driver to drive you and your group to Missinipe. This is great way to go. The driver is very much like a tour guide. The tour guide can talk to you about the changing landscape and points of interest as you travel. For a medium to large sized group it is quite economical.

5. Fly to Forest House: Forest House is a short fifteen minute flight from the Churchill River canoe Outfitter's base camp in Missinipe.

6. Paddle to Forest House: Forest House is a four hour paddle from McLennan Lake. This is a relaxing, easy, scenic-filled paddle, a very nice way to get to our lodge. Our staff can transport you from our base camp in Missinipe to McLennan Lake, and completely outfit you for your paddle in.

7. Winter - Ski or snowmobile into Forest House over scenic frozen lakes.
